a type of idiopathic refractory anemia characterized by pancytopenia, hypoplasia of the bone marrow, and congenital anomalies, occurring in members of the same family (an autosomal recessive trait in at least five nonallelic types [MIM*227650, 227660, 227645, 227646, 600901]); the anemia is normocytic or slightly macrocytic, macrocytes and target cells may be found in the circulating blood, and the leukopenia usually is due to neutropenia. Congenital anomalies include short stature; microcephaly; hypogenitalism; strabismus; anomalies of the thumbs, radii, and kidneys and urinary tract; mental retardation; and microphthalmia.
I'm guessing there is none, that fanconi anemia is the scientific name, and that the common name is FA.
Fanconi anemia (FA)English word Anemia Afrikaans language anemie
Fanconi Anemia is a very rare inherited disorder which can affect many parts of the body and often develops into a form of leukemia or cancer and often associated with bone marrow failure. Worldwide it affects one in 160,000 people but there are various races who are more prone to the disease than others such as Ashkenazi jews, or Roma population of Spain.
The first successful umbilical cord stem cell transplant was performed in 1988. It was done to treat a young boy with Fanconi anemia, a rare genetic disorder. The transplant was successful in restoring his blood cell production.
Guido Fanconi was born in 1892.
Guido Fanconi died in 1979.
Fanconi's syndrome affects the kidney
does fanconi syndrome lead to cancer
Fanconi's syndrome can be reversible. Fanconi's syndrome caused by kidney transplantation usually reverses itself within the first year after transplant surgery. When caused by a toxin in the environment, Fanconi's syndrome generally can.
Fanconi's syndrome can be caused by a variety of genetic defects and by certain environmental assaults. The genetic diseases known to give rise to Fanconi's syndrome are cystinosis (the most common cause in children).
