Abstract: Red cell aplasia is a disorder characterized by normocytic normochromic anaemia with marked reticulocytopenia and absence or marked reduction of erythroid precursors in the bone marrow. Red cell aplasia are due to different causes which are divided into primary and acquired. Due to rarity of red cell aplasia, studies of many cases are not done. Red cell aplasia can mimic other disease which present solely as anaemia. Bone marrow examination is required to establish the diagnosis of red cell aplasia and to establish the cause.
