Transient erythroblastopenia of childhood (TEC ) is the most common acquired red cell aplasia occurring in children. This syndrome of severe, transient hypoplastic anemia occurs mainly in previously healthy children between 6 mo and 3 yr of age; most of the children are >12 mo at onset. Virtually all children recover within 1-2 mo. RBC transfusions may be necessary for severe anemia in the absence of signs of early recovery. Corticosteroid therapy is of no value in this disorder. #Daily_Pediatric_Hematology #Nelson_Textbook #Dr_Khoshoa_Alzubair
