Changes in peripheral blood cells and serum ferritin in lysinuric protein intolerance

J Rajantie et al. Acta Paediatr Scand. 1980 Nov.

Abstract

Twenty-seven patients with lysinuric protein intolerance, an autosomal recessive disorder of diamino acid transport, have been followed at our hospital since 1965. Many of the patients had recurrent mild normochromic anaemia without apparent iron deficiency, and leuko- and/or thrombocytopenia. Serum ferritin concentrations were inappropriately high. Serum ferritin concentration appears to be a valuable index of the control of this disease.
