2008 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 284.9

Aplastic anemia unspecified

  • A condition in which the bone marrow is unable to produce blood cells.
  • A form of anemia in which the bone marrow fails to produce adequate numbers of peripheral blood elements.
  • A severe sometimes chronic anemia, usually macrocytic in type, that does not respond to ordinary antianemic therapy.
  • Anemia resulting from bone marrow failure (aplastic or hypoplastic bone marrow). The production of erythroblasts and red cells is markedly decreased, and it may be associated with decreased production of granulocytes (granulocytopenia) and platelets (thrombocytopenia) as well. Aplastic anemia may be idiopathic or secondary due to bone marrow damage by toxins, radiation, or immunologic factors. -- 2004
