Cytological Diagnosis of Microcytic Hypochromic Iron Deficiency Anemia

The most common (80–95% of all anemias) in therapeutic practice is chronic iron deficiency anemia (IDA) - a painful condition caused by impaired hemoglobin synthesis due to iron deficiency. The condition is observed in 10-30% of the adult population, more often in women. Children get sick less often than adults [D.I. Trukhan, S.N. Filimonov, N.V. Bagisheva, 2021]. Microcytic hypochromic iron deficiency anemia was detected in 4,000 out of 45,000 patients who underwent a complete blood count in the laboratory of the Bukhara branch of the RRCEM for 1 year.
