Our experiences with anemia in the old age is it a sign or additional disease?
Original language description
With increasing age occurrence of anemias grows. Anaemia especially in the elderly is a sign, not a diagnosis, an evaluation is almost warranted to identify the underlying cause. Conclusions: Anemia in the elderly is often caused by a benign disease and,in fact, may simply be a marker of a chronic illness. It may be, however, a presenting sign of a serious disease, including cancer. The authors point out some aspects, risks and pitfalls of anemia in the elderly following their own experiences. Anemia in old patients often means the one in chronic disease.
