  • Title: Iron deficiency in pernicious anaemia: a neglected diagnosis.
    Author: Atrah HI, Davidson RJ.
    Journal: Postgrad Med J; 1988 Feb; 64(748):110-1. PubMed ID: 3174520.
    Abstract:
    In 114 patients (52 males and 62 females) with long-standing pernicious anaemia, hypoferritinaemia was found in 27 (23.7%) and hypochromic microcytic anaemia in 19 (16.6%). Our findings indicate that iron deficiency is a common yet neglected complication of long-standing pernicious anaemia and warrants greater diagnostic and therapeutic attention.
