Description : CDA I is a rare inherited red blood cell disorder characterized by macrocytic anemia,
ineffective erythropoiesis, and secondary hemochromatosis. It is occasionally associated
with bone abnormalities, especially of the hands and feet (acrodysostosis), nail hypoplasia,
and scoliosis (Tamary et al., 2005). Striking morphologic abnormalities of erythroblasts,
reviewed by Wickramasinghe and Wood (2005), include the 'Swiss-cheese' abnormality
of erythroblasts on electron microscopy. - Classification and Genetic Heterogeneity
of Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemia There are 4 types of congenital dyserythropoietic
anemia: CDAN2 (224100), caused by mutation in the SEC23B gene (610512); CDAN3 (105600),
which maps to chromosome 15q21; and CDAN4 (613673), caused by mutation in the KLF1
gene (600599). All forms of CDAN are characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and
multinuclear erythroblasts. The classification of the first 3 types is based on that
described by Wendt and Heimpel (1967). Type I is characterized by megaloblastic changes.
The more common type II (224100) is characterized by normocytic binuclear or multinuclear
red cells, which on electron microscopy contain double cytoplasmic membranes. Type
III (105600), which is autosomal dominant, shows prominent erythroblastic multinuclearity
forming 'gigantoblasts' with up to 12 nuclei. Type IV (613673) is the designation
given to a form of CDA with characteristics different from those of types I, II, and
III (Wickramasinghe et al., 1991; Arnaud et al., 2010).;
