Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) definition and facts. PNH is a rare, chronic disease that causes rapid breakdown of red blood cells and can result in reddish or cola-colored urine, often seen in the early morning after urination. PNH is due to a spontaneous mutation in gene material. PNH is not inherited.
There are over 100 types of PN and many different causes for it. They include injury, inherited diseases, chronic conditions, infections, medicines, lack of vitamins or HIV itself. A common example of PN is carpal tunnel syndrome. Peripheral neuropathy can be due to damage to the coating (myelin) of the nerve endings. The damage may also be due to a breakdown of the nerve endings themselves. Some chronic conditions can also cause PN, like diabetes, arthritis and lupus, as well as some viral infections, like CMV or herpes.
