Fanconi's aplastic anaemia in two sisters in Trinidad and Tobago.
This report describes two cases of Fanconi's anaemia in Trinidadian sisters of East Indian origin. The cases have been confirmed by chromosomal analysis which showed increased breaks and ring forms. Anorexia was a persistent finding in both cases. One of the sisters also had a poor growth hormone response.
