    Abstract:
    Pernicious anaemia (PA) has previously not been reported from Bangladesh. A case is described which had the typical clinical features of PA with subacute combined degeneration of the cord and polyneuropathy. The patient had typical macroovalocytosis, megaloblastic bone marrow and Schilling test result in the range of PA. Vitamin B12 level in the serum was markedly reduced. There was rapid clinical and haematological response to vitamin B12 therapy.
