Classification

Sideroblastic anemia may be classified according to its etiology into two groups:

• Congenital
• Acquired

Congenital sideroblastic anaemias
X-linked	X-linked sideroblastic anaemia (XLSA) X-linked sideroblastic anaemia with ataxia (XLSA/A)
Autosomal	Glutaredoxin-5 deficiency Thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anaemia (TRMA) Associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) Myopathy, lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anaemia (MLASA)
Mitochondrial DNA	Pearson syndrome
