An experience with 124 cases of fanconi anemia: clinical spectrum, hematological parameters and chromosomal breakage analysis.
Background: Fanconi anemia is an inherited bone marrow failure syndrome characterized by somatic abnormalities and an increased predisposition to malignancies.
Objective: To determine the clinical spectrum and evaluate the hematological parameters as well as highlight diagnosis by chromosomal breakage analysis of Fanconi anemia patients.
Material and methods: A total of 124 patients were diagnosed as having Fanconi anemia from August 2014 to May 2020 at Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Clinical details, somatic abnormalities, radiological findings, lab parameters and result of chromosomal breakage analysis were noted and analyzed.
Results: One hundred and twenty four (14.29%) were diagnosed as having Fanconi anemia (FA) on chromosomal breakage test. Median age was 09 years 06 months. Male to female ratio was 1.9:1. Six of these patients exhibited mosaicism and were classified as FA mosaic. Somatic abnormalities were detected in 74 (59.7%) patients; the most common being skeletal abnormalities and short stature.
Conclusion: Chromosomal breakage analysis is a cost-effective method for diagnosis of Fanconi anemia. Early diagnosis is pertinent for proper treatment and long term prognosis.
