Abstract

Aim and Background: Pancytopenia is a reduction of all the three cells of peripheral blood lineage: leukocytes, erythrocytes and platelets. The bone marrow can be primarily hypocellular in pancytopenia either due to reduction of hematopoietic cell production or ineffective haemopoiesis. Generally, infections, toxins or malignant transformation of the marrow are responsible for most of the cases of pancytopenia.1 After the incidence of Covid-19 pandemic, pancytopenia has been seen to occur as a rare complication secondary to SARS-COV 2. Here, we report a unique case of pancytopenia in a previously healthy child with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
