Many processes lead to anemia. This review covers anemias that are less commonly encountered in the United States. These anemias include hemoglobin defects like thalassemia, bone marrow failure syndromes like aplastic anemia and pure red cell aplasia, and hemolytic processes such as paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. The pathogenesis, diagnostic workup, and treatment of these rare anemias are reviewed.

Microparticles (MP) are small membrane vesicles released from many different cell types in response to cellular activation or apoptosis, which have the procoagulant effect. Hemolytic anemia(HA) is a type of anemia that have a short life expectancy of red blood cells due to the destruction which exceed the hematopoietic compensatory capacity of bone marrow. Sickle cell anemia(SCD), thalassemia and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria(PNH) are all characterized by hypercoagulation and thromboembolism (TE). Research shows that MP can promote the formation of hypercoagulative state which in turn increases the risk of thromboembolism in HA. This review mainly summarized the advance research of MP in HA in the past 5 years. Moreover the relationship between the abnormal MP and hypercoagulation in HA, the impact of the related treatment to the MP, the research of MP in animal model of HA and the application of the MP-proteomics in HA are also disscussed.
