RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Unusual megaloblastic anaemia wiht multinucleate erythroblasts: two cases with septicaemia and acute renal failure. JF Journal of Clinical Pathology JO J Clin Pathol FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd and Association of Clinical Pathologists SP 324 OP 331 DO 10.1136/jcp.28.4.324 VO 28 IS 4 A1 M Saary A1 J G Sissons A1 W A Davies A1 A V Hoffbrand YR 1975 UL http://jcp.bmj.com/content/28/4/324.abstract AB The case histories and blood pictures of two patients who had cardiac lesions, septicaemia, and renal failure and terminally developed a leucoerythroblastic anaemia with megloblastic features associated with multinucleate erythroblasts, are described. Though folate deficiency may have made a minor contribution to the blood abnormalities, it is considered that some other disturbance in erythropoiesis was responsible for the bizarre blood and bone marrow changes in these patients. Similar cases reported in the earlier literature are reviewed.
