Abstract We report herein a child with transfusion‐dependent chronic anemia, the cause of which was difficult to establish because of his transfusion dependency. The clinical and laboratory features suggested a chronic nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia (CNSHA) with bone marrow features suggestive of congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA). DNA studies, however, revealed the underlying condition to be due to a novel mutation in the PKLR gene responsible for pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD). Molecular investigations by a targeted next‐generation sequencing (t‐NGS) using a custom panel of 71 genes involved in the red blood cell (RBC) disorders revealed that the patient was homozygous for a novel missense mutation c.898G>C, p.Ala300Pro, whereas both his parents were heterozygous for the same mutation. |
