Overview

All these diseases are very frequently associated with different inborn abnormalities (of the skeleton, kidney, heart). Although the haematological manifestations with bone marrow inhibition may be present already in infant age, the majority of clinical manifestations develops ohly during the first decade of life.The authors submit a tase-history of a ten-year-old patient with some clinical symptoms which esere diagnostically classified as Fanconi's anaemia only after several years.
