@#This report a case of a ten-year-old female with progressive cyanosis and dyspnea on exertion. Clinical and laboratory work up ruled out a cardiac and pulmonary pathology warranting further investigation for possible hemoglobinopathies. Enzyme assay showed deficiency in cytochrome b5 reductase seen in patients with congenital methemoglobinemia. Ascorbic acid at 200mg daily afforded gradual improvement in cyanosis.
