暂无%X A toddler with an unbalanced diet and gastrointestinal bleeding by juvenile polyp developed an aplastic crisis due to the human parvovirus B19 (HPVB19). Although he exhibited microcytic anemia without iron deficiency in the acute phase of HPVB19 infection, he presented with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in the chronic phase. IDA results in erythroblast hyperplasia and shortened red blood cell lifespan as like congenital hemolytic diseases, which may lead to an aplastic crisis during HPVB19 infection. It should be noted that iron deficiency is often masked, and microcytic anemia may be a clue for IDA.
