3 children who fulfilled the criteria for the diagnosis of paroxysmal cold haemo‐globinuria of the classical Donath‐Landsteiner type are described. The benign clinical course of this illness is confirmed. A serological study of two of the Donath‐Landsteiner antibodies revealed the anti‐P specificity in one, but not in another serum.
