Overview

DBA typically present with common symptoms of anemia, including pale skin, sleepiness, irritability, tachycardia. Common complications of DBA include physical abnormalities, Cancer predisposition, eye problems such as cataracts, glaucoma, or strabismus, kidney abnormalities, hypospadias, and secondary complications due to standard therapies( Corticosteroids treatment, Red cell transfusion, Bone marrow transplantation). Prognosis is relatively good, overall actuarial survival is 75% at age 40 years

Prognosis

Prognosis is relatively good, overall actuarial survival is 75% at age 40 years, but complications related to treatment may alter the quality of life of the affected individuals. Severe complications as a result of treatment or the development of cancer may reduce life expectancy. [4]
