title: A new type of transfusion-dependent congenital dyserythropoietic anemia.
abstract: Cases of congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA) that do not conform to any of the three classical types often present diagnostic difficulties and are at risk of developing secondary hemochromatosis. Here, we report a case of a six year old boy with transfusion dependency and gross abnormalities of the erythroblasts.
