Insuficiencia cardíaca aguda irreversible debido a hemocromatosis cardíaca secundaria a transfusiones múltiples
We report a 64 years old male, admitted for dyspnea and edema of two weeks duration. A sideroblastic anemia, requiring multiple transfusions, was diagnosed four years earlier. The chest X-ray showed an enlarged heart and right pleural effusion. A low left ejection fraction was evidenced by echocardi...
