Fanconi anemia

Fanconi anemia (FA) is an autosomal recessive disorder in which there is decreased production of red blood cells (anemia), white blood cells, and platelets due to bone marrow failure. This can cause problems with the immune system, increase the risk of infection, and can lead to bleeding problems. People with FA may also have stature, upper limb malformations, and an increased incidence of acute myeloid leukemia.
