Overview
Methemoglobinemia may be classified into two groups, based on the mechanism of its formation- acquired and congenital methemoglobinemia.
Classification
Methemoglobinemia may be classified into two groups, based on the mechanism of its formation- acquired and congenital methemoglobinemia.
Congenital (Hereditary) Methemoglobinemia
- There are three main congenital conditions that lead to methemoglobinemia:
1.Cytochrome b5 reductase deficiency and pyruvate kinase deficiency[1]
3.Presence of abnormal hemoglobin (Hb M)
Acquired or Acute Methemoglobinemia
- The most common causes are different oxidant drugs, toxins and chemicals.[2]
