DIAMOND-BLACKFAN ANEMIA 1; DBA1

Alternate names

DIAMOND-BLACKFAN ANEMIA 1; DBA1 Is also known as dba, blackfan-diamond syndrome;bds, anemia, congenital hypoplastic, of blackfan and diamond, anemia, congenital erythroid hypoplastic, red cell aplasia, pure, hereditary, aregenerative anemia, chronic congenital, erythrogenesis imperfecta, aase-smith syndrome ii, aase syndrome

Description

Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is an inherited red blood cell aplasia that usually presents in the first year of life. The main features are normochromic macrocytic anemia, reticulocytopenia, and nearly absent erythroid progenitors in the bone marrow. Patients show growth retardation, and approximately 30 to 50% have craniofacial, upper limb, heart, and urinary system congenital malformations. The majority of patients have increased mean corpuscular volume, elevated erythrocyte adenosine deaminase activity, and persistence of hemoglobin F. However, some DBA patients do not exhibit these findings, and even in the same family, symptoms can vary between affected family members (summary by Landowski et al., 2013).

Most common symptoms of DIAMOND-BLACKFAN ANEMIA 1; DBA1

Autosomal dominant inheritance
Intellectual disability
Short stature
Pica
Microcephaly
