Congenital dyserythropoietic anaemias (CDAs) are a heterogeneous class of inherited disorders resulting from abnormalities of erythropoiesis and distinctive morphologic abnormalities in bone marrow erythroblasts[1]. Dyserythropoiesis is the main reason for anaemia but shortened half life of red blood cells may also contribute to the anaemia. Mainly four types of CDAs are identified depending on bone marrow morphology, clinical features and genetic variants. Additional subgroups and variants are also identified. We are reporting a case of six months old male child presented with severe anaemia diagnosed with CDA typel. CDA type 1 is rare autosomal recessive disorder and only more than 300 cases are reported worldwide. Very few are reported from India. We are reporting a case of CDA type 1 from Vidarbha region of Maharashtra from a tertiary care centre.
