Copper deficiency
resulting in
hypocupremia
is a rare cause of pancytopenia associated with a neurological syndrome.
Hypocupremia
may also occur as a consequence of excessive oral zinc consumption as described by Brewer et al and several other groups. Dental fixatives have been described as a potential source of hyperzincemia in patients. Despite the recently modified dental fixatives with safer zinc content, zinc poisoning results in
hypocupremia
secondary to inappropriate use of them can still happen and more likely be misdiagnosed. We describe a case of a patient with pancytopenia who was diagnosed with severe
aplastic anemia
and hypocellular myelodysplastic syndrome and was referred to us for consideration of bone marrow transplantation.
