Congenital methemoglobinemia is caused by NADH-methemoglobin reductase deficiency in more than half of the total reported cases. NADH-methemoglobin reductase deficiency is an uncommon hereditary disorder producing methemoglobinemia and cyanosis in the homozygous subject. A majority of the patients born with these abnormalities have only a cosmetic defect-asymptomatic cyanosis. Congenital methemoglobinemia due to NADH-methemoglobin reductase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder...

Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia(CDA) is a rare disease characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis, specific cytopathology of the nucleated red cells in the bone marrow and secondary hemochromatosis. CDA is classified into 4 types on the basis of results of electron microscopic and serologic studies. We experienced a case of congenital dyserythropoietic anemia in a 5/12 year-old boy. Diagnosis was established by macrocytosis, anisopoikilocytosis in PB...
