Irida Syndrome

Description

IRIDA (Iron-refractory iron deficiency anemia) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive iron metabolism disorder characterized by iron deficiency anemia (hypochromic, microcytic) that is often unresponsive to oral iron intake and partially responsive to parenteral iron treatment.
