Digenic Functional B12 and Folate Defect Mimicking Myelodysplasia

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Proposed mechanistic model of mutation‐related outcomes. ABSTRACT A digenic defect involving CUBN and MTHFR produced functional B12/folate deficiency in a patient with pancytopenia and neurological signs, mimicking myelodysplasia. Genetic and metabolic screening revealed elevated methylmalonic acid/homocysteine, with rapid remission post‐parenteral B12.
