Presentation
Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type I (CDA1) can present in utero with hydrops fetalis, but more often it presents in childhood or adulthood with moderate macrocytic anemia, jaundice, and progressive iron-overload. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Other beta chain structural defects may also present under such circumstances. [oncologynurseadvisor.com]

Discussion: We present a patient with severe fetal and infant transfusion dependent anemia who has two novel CDAN1 gene variants not previously described. [bloodjournal.org]
Entire Body System
- Splenectomy
Splenectomy was mandatory in our patient in order to control CDA and particularly AIHA. However, splenectomy alone is inappropriate for the treatment of portal hypertension and does not relieve ascites[ 30, 31 ]. [wjgnet.com]
Splenectomy was performed on 7 patients ranging in age from 9 to 28 years. Data before and after splenectomy are available in 6 of those patients. [bloodjournal.org]
Just haemolysis is not a justification. 2) Splenectomy is useful in only CDA II. It is not at all useful in other CDAs. [thalassemiapatientsandfriends.com]

- Short Stature
Dysmorphisms such as distal limb abnormalities, skin pigmentation defects, vertebral malformations, and short stature may also be present. Mutations in the CDAN1/codanin-1 gene underlie the majority of CDA type I cases. [bloodjournal.org]
One child exhibited transient growth hormone deficiency and short stature. This disorder was formerly known as CDG-If. [rarediseases.org]
Some cases have congenital abnormalities such as syndactyly, aberrations of the bones of the hands and feet (absence or hypoplasia of some phalanges, additional phalanges), dysplastic nails, short stature and abnormal pigmentation of areas of the skin [clinicalgate.com]

In rare cases, the vein may swell after blood is drawn. If this occurs, apply a warm compress to the spot several times each day. [healthline.com]
Additional symptoms include liver abnormalities, heart abnormalities such as disease of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy), stroke-like episodes, and excessive loss of proteins from the gastrointestinal tract (protein-losing enteropathy), which can cause swelling [rarediseases.org]
Immune System
- Splenomegaly
CDA I patients have a moderate macrocytic anemia with frequent splenomegaly and occasional hepatomegaly. [orpha.net]
Abdominal ultrasound revealed mild splenomegaly and a chololithiasis, while the obstetrics ultrasonography was normal. [cureus.com]

Our patient is a Taiwanese child who presented to us at 8. years of age with severe hemolytic anemia, splenomegaly, elevated fetal hemoglobin (HbF), iron overload, and dyserythropoiesis in the bone marrow. [einstein.pure.elsevier.com]
Individuals with CDAII show progressive splenomegaly, gallstones and iron overload potentially with liver cirrhosis or cardiac failure. Here we show that the gene encoding the secretory COPII component SEC23B is mutated in CDAII. [f1000.com]

Additional symptoms can include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and an enlarged liver (hepatomegaly). The specific symptoms vary greatly even among members of the same family. Approximately 25 individuals have been diagnosed with MPI-CDG. [rarediseases.org]
- Failure to Thrive
Feeding difficulties leading to failure to thrive is also common. Failure to thrive is defined as the failure to grow and gain weight as would be expected based upon age and gender. [rarediseases.org]
Symptoms of anemia include fatigue, failure to thrive in infants, headache, dizziness, leg cramps, tachycardia and insomnia. Erythropoiesis is always dysfunctional, as revealed by cellular anomalies and erythroid hyperplasia. [orpha.net]

Workup
These assays are routinely performed in the diagnostic workup of DAT-negative hemolytic anemia. It is unknown if flow cytometry with EMA and monoclonal antibodies against CD55 and CD59 can be used to identify samples from CDA III patients. [omicsonline.org]
