The frequency of the acquired sideroblastic anemias far exceeds that of the hereditary varieties. Drugs and toxins lead this category, propelled largely by the high frequency of alcohol abuse in many societies (Larkin et al, 1984). Alcohol produces sideroblastic anemia in only a small fraction of people. A large number results, however, when this small fraction is factored against the very large number of alcohol abusers. The next largest subgroup is itself a subset of the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) (Hast, 1986).
