In 1972 a 61-year-old white female was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia and was discovered to be*1 anemic. At that time, her anemia was presumed to be*2 related to a poor dietary history and she was treated with iron supplement. In 1975 she was readmitted*3 to the hospital for pneumonia. Her admission complete blood cell count (CBC) showed the following results*4 : WBC 18.2×109/l Hemoglobin 9.1 g/dl Hematocrit 0.29 Additional tests were done to determine the cause of her anemia. The results were as follows : Patient Normal Reticulocyte count (uncorrected) 1.8% 0.5-1.5% Total serum iron 21μg/dl 40-170μg/dl Iron binding capacity 150μg/dl 250-420μg/dl Percent saturation 14% 20-55% Her hemoglobin electrophoresis was normal. Once again she was diagnosed as having*5 iron deficiency anemia. In 1978 she was readmitted to the hospital and this time her CBC showed : WBC 12.5×109/l Hematocrit 0.38 MCHC 31% RBC 5.70×1012/l MCV 68 fl Hemoglobin 11.7g/dl MCH 21 pg Examination of the peripheral smear*6 showed moderate anisocytosis "jaJpan", poikilocytosis*8, and hypochromia*9, with slight basophilic stippling*10 of the red cells. Platelets appeared adequate. Her reticulocyte count was 3.5 percent. Total serum iron was low normal, 40μg/dl, with a total iron binding capacity*11 of 240μg/dl. The percent saturation (17 percent) was slightly decreased.
