[Pluriglandular insufficiency due to transfusion haemosiderosis in Blackfan-Diamond anaemia (author's transl)].
The article reports on a boy aged 16 1/2 years suffering from transfusion haemosiderosis associated with corticoid-resistant blackfan diamond anaemia. Besides hepatosplenomegalia and cardiomegalia, the course of the disease was mainly determined by the deficient functioning of several endocrine glands. The diagnosis revealed primary hypothyroidism, hypoparathyroidism and partial insufficiency of the pituitary gland.
