Copper defiency

Hi Chirley,
As Marlene has written many times it is important that hematologists are aware of that copper defiency can mimic MDS. These 16 patients got their dx very late like you and probably a lot of patients never get the correct dx.

Very interesting with hyperzincaemia, hypocupraemia and del 15q.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
