Publisher Summary In more than 95% of cases, megaloblastic anemia is as a result of folate and vitamin B12 deficiency. Megaloblastic anemias are characterized by the presence of megaloblasts in the bone marrow and macrocytes in the blood. Megaloblastic anemia may also result from rare inborn errors of metabolism of folate or vitamin B12.

In six patients, eight episodes of anemia associated with folic acid or vitamin B12 deficiency were unaccompanied by macrocytosis. Six of the eight episodes of anemia were complicated by illnesses of an inflammatory or infectious nature, two patients had iron deficiency, two appeared to have a thalassemia trait, and one had severe renal failure.
