Pancytopenia is a common hematological problem in India. This study was carried out to identify the causes of pancytopenia. It was a prospective study conducted at the department of Pathology, KIMS, Hubli, India for a duration of one year.A total of 137 cases, which met the criteria for pancytopenia were included in the study. Complete hemogram, bone marrow examination and other investigations were done in these cases. Megaloblastic anemia, aplastic anemia and malaria are the major causes of pancytopenia in our study. As majority of causes for pancytopenia are treatable, a proper work-up to detect the underlying etiology should be attempted in all cases of pancytopenia.Keywords
Pancytopenia, Megaloblastic Anemia, Aplastic Anemia
