A 7-month-old infant was referred to our hematology clinic for workup for presumed polycythemia (Hgb 19 gm/dl), which was detected by his pediatrician through routine blood work. He also had failure to thrive, with both his weight and height well below the fifth percentile, and he had delayed fine and gross motor skills. Learn more about the case and take the quiz.
