abstract：:Two unrelated cases of congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia (CDA) are described. They show striking similarities which could not be attributed to one of the well-known types of CDA or any other congenital disease of the erythroid system. Both patients were followed for many years before and after splenectomy. There wa...
