Scurvy is caused by a deficiency of ascorbic acid. We describe a 31-year-old Hispanic man who had perifollicular hemorrhages, follicular hyperkeratosis, corkscrew hairs, and gingival hemorrhage after consuming a peculiar and restricted diet for 1 year. A diagnosis of scurvy was made and the patient's disease resolved after treatment with vitamin C.

Abstract The clinical and haematologic findings in seven patients with scurvy are presented. Although all had overt scurvy, two were not anaemic. Four had hypochromic normoblastic erythropoiesis and one had a megaloblastic anaemia subsequently shown to be Addisonian, Complete haematologic remission was obtained with ascorbic acid in two patients.

Unlike most animals, which form ascorbic acid by metabolizing glucose, humans require an exogenous source. Vitamin C occurs primarily in fruits and vegetables, and scurvy develops from inadequate consumption of these sources, usually because of ignorance about proper nutrition, psychiatric disorders, alcoholism, or social isolation.

Abstract The haematologic findings in five patients with scurvy are presented. Four had hypercellular bone marrows which, although predominantly macronormoplastic, showed some megaloblastic change. Complete clinical and haematologic remission was effected by the administration of ascorbic acid alone in five of the six episodes of scurvy.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the hematology, hemolysis, and the anemia of scurvy. It also describes the hematological effect of therapy with ascorbic acid. The majority of patients with scurvy have a normocytic or macrocytic anemia associated with a normoblastic or macronormoblastic anemia.
