Pure red cell aplasia with t-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia.

Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) develops as a result of erythroid precursors failing to reach maturity in the bone marrow, which eventually leads to anemia. Here we present a case of a 64-year-old Asian male with a medical history of colorectal adenocarcinoma who had been treated with 6 cycles of oxaliplatin and capecitabine four years ago. The patient was diagnosed with PRCA and T-cell large granular lymphocyte leukemia.
