title: [Anemias significant in occupational medicine].
abstract: The role of anaemia in occupational medicine is reviewed briefly. Although anaemia is an infrequent symptom, it may be important by its severeness. Irreversible bone marrow failure following exposition to benzene, is discussed more in detail and finally the importance of evaluating professional exposition to potentially myelo-toxic compounds in every patient, is emphasized.
