[Addison-Biermer disease combined with chronic posthemorrhagic iron-deficiency anemia (dimorphic anemias)].

The paper reports 7 cases of dimorphic anemia, development of Addison-Biermer disease in preexisting chronic posthemorrhagic anemia. The authors consider some diagnostic and therapeutic aspects. It is thought valid to discontinue iron preparations prior to vitamin B12 therapy and to start them again upon the arising reticulocytic crisis.
