Protocolo Diagnóstico de Las Anemias Normociticas
Keywords: Abstract
- Normocytic anemia
Diagnostic protocol of normocytic anemias
- Anemia of chronic disease
- Hepcidin The term normocytic anemia is usually used to identify those arregenerative anemias with a MCV
- Erythropoietin between 80 and 100 fl, generally related to a heterogeneous group of chronic disorders such as
hepatopathy, renal insufficiency, autoimmune disorders, endocrinopathies, neoplasias, and chronic
infections, in which several etiopatogenic mechanisms are involved, like an abnormal use of the
organism iron or a deficient production of erythropoietin. The diferential diagnosis is frequently
complicated as many of these patients often have an anemia of mixed etiology. Also, a number of
anemias typically microcytic (like iron deficiency anemia) or macrocytic (like regenerative
anemias) may appear with a normal MCV at the beginning. Treatment is based on the therapy of the
underlying disease and frequently requires the administration of erythropoietin.
