Megaloblastic Anemia Question: How is Megaloblastic Anemia diagnosed? Unique Identifier:2035976 Authors: Beck WS. Institution: Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts. Title: Diagnosis of megaloblastic anemia. [Review] [59 refs] Source: Annual Review of Medicine. 42:311-22, 1991. Abstract: Megaloblastic anemia can be due to cobalamin deficiency, folate deficiency, or refractory forms of bone marrow disease. This essay reviews current thinking on the diagnostic procedures available to a physician considering these disorders. The questions to be answered are as follows: Is a megaloblastic anemia present? Is there a deficiency of cobalamin or folate? If a deficiency is present, what is its cause? Various diagnostic tests are discussed with regard to the differences in their sensitivity and metabolic implications. In particular, we consider the newest diagnostic tests for cobalamin deficiency, serum homocysteine, and methylmalonate, which appear to be highly sensitive predictors of clinical morbidity. Application of these tests suggests that many more patients are cobalamin-deficient than had been supposed.

Ens-Dokkum Ghent University Hospital, Department of Pediatric Ophthalmology, Ghent, Belgium Bartiméus Institute for Visually Handicapped Children, Zeist, The Netherlands University Clinic of Antwerpen, Antwerpen, Belgium Institute for the Deaf, Effatha, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands Thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA) is an autosomal recessive disease in which the active thiamine uptake into cells is disturbed. The molecular basis underlying the disorder has been related to mutations in the gene SLC19A2 on chromosome 1q23.3 that encodes a functional thiamine transporter. The protein is predicted to have 12 transmembrane domains. TRMA is characterized by sensorineural deafness, diabetes mellitus, megaloblastic anemia, and cardiomyopathy. Optic nerve atrophy and retinal dystrophy have been reported in a small number of patients. We report a 15-year-old girl with TRMA and cone-rod dystrophy and confirm that retinal dystrophy may form part of the syndrome. Differential diagnosis of syndromes with deafness, diabetes mellitus, and optic nerve atrophy or retinal dystrophy are discussed. The authors suggest that ERG be performed in all patients with TRMA.

This page has moved. Click here to view. Vitamin B12 deficiency anemia Since body stores of vitamin B12 are adequate for up to five years, deficiency is generally the result of failure to absorb it. Pernicious anemia, Crohn's disease and other intestinal disorders are the most frequent causes of vitamin B12 deficiency. Symptoms are attributable primarily to anemia, although glossitis, jaundice, and splenomegaly may be present. Vitamin B12 deficiency may cause decreased vibratory and positional sense, ataxia, paresthesias, confusion, and Treatment of vitamin B 12 deficiency anemia . Intramuscular, oral or intranasal preparations are available for B 12 replacement. In patients with severe vitamin B12 deficiency, daily IM injections of 1,000 mcg of cyanocobalamin are Folate deficiency anemia Folate deficiency is characterized by megaloblastic anemia and low serum folate levels. Most patients with folate deficiency have inadequate intake. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and indirect bilirubin typically are elevated, reflecting ineffective erythropoiesis and premature destruction of RBCs. RBC folic acid and serum vitamin B levels should be measured. RBC folate is a more accurate indicator of body folate stores than is serum folate, particularly if measured after folate therapy has been anemia, vitamin B12, anemea, megaloblastic, megablastic

Megaloblastic (Pernicious) Anemia What is megaloblastic (pernicious) anemia? Megaloblastic anemia, also called pernicious anemia, is a type of anemia characterized by very large red blood cells. In addition to the cells being large, the inner contents of each cell are not completely developed. This malformation causes the bone marrow to produce fewer cells, and sometimes the cells die earlier than the 120-day life expectancy. Instead of being round or disc-shaped, the red blood cells can be oval. What causes megaloblastic (pernicious) anemia? There are many causes of megaloblastic anemia, but the most common source in children occurs from a vitamin deficiency of folic acid. Other sources of megaloblastic anemia include the following: digestive diseases Certain diseases of the lower digestive tract can lead to megaloblastic anemia. These include celiac disease, chronic infectious enteritis, and enteroenteric fistulas. malabsorption Inherited congenital folate malabsorption, a genetic problem in which infants cannot absorb folic acid in their intestines, can lead to megaloblastic anemia. This requires early intensive treatment to prevent long term problems such as mental retardation.
