Abstract :

 Pure red cell aplasia(PRCA) is a rare condition. Cardinal findings are a low hemoglobin level, reticulocytopenia, and absent or extremely infrequent erythroid precursor cells in the marrow. We report a case of 25 year old man who presented with transfusion dependent anemia to our centre. After being investigated he was diagnosed with PRCA and started on glucocorticoids as underlying cause could not be established. He was advised to follow up with cytogenetic studies to rule out myelodysplasia or other lymphoid malignancies.
