Hereditary Sideroblastic Anaemia in 4 Siblings of a Libyan Family – Autosomal Inheritance

Hereditary Sideroblastic Anaemia in 4 Siblings of a Libyan Family – Autosomal Inheritance Most of the hereditary sideroblastic anaemias are inherited as x-linked recessive traits and are often pyridoxine responsive. The present paper describes the classical features of sideroblastic anaemia in 2 male and 2 female siblings of a Libyan family. All 4 children had severe anaemia and moderate hepato-splenomegaly. The equal severity of the disease in all 4 family members suggests autosomal inheritance. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acta Haematologica Karger

Abstract

Most of the hereditary sideroblastic anaemias are inherited as x-linked recessive traits and are often pyridoxine responsive. The present paper describes the classical features of sideroblastic anaemia in 2 male and 2 female siblings of a Libyan family. All 4 children had severe anaemia and moderate hepato-splenomegaly. The equal severity of the disease in all 4 family members suggests autosomal inheritance.
