All the cases of pancytopenia from July 2001 to June 2002 (one year) were examined in the Department of haematology, Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi. Bone marrow aspirations/biopsy were performed in most of the cases (200 out of 250 cases). The commonest cause of pancytopenia, in our hospital was Megaloblastic anaemia (72%), followed by Aplastic anaemia (14%) and others.
