Transient erythroblastopenia of childhood

A rare, benign, red cell aplasia of young children or infants characterized by a normocytic normochromic anaemia with severe reticulocytopenia in otherwise normocellular bone marrow, and a complete spontaneous recovery within 1-2 months after diagnosis. Neutropenia and thrombocytosis may be associated findings at diagnosis, and a history of a preceding viral illness is frequent. No organomegaly is observed.
