Pernicious Anemia (B12 Deficiency)
Background
1.Definition
o Anemia due to lack of intrinsic factor in gastric secretions, which leads to
impaired vitamin B12 absorption
2.General informationo Intrinsic factor binds B12 absorption of B12 in intestine
B12 cannot be absorbed unless bound to intrinsic factor
o ther causes of vitamin B12 deficienc! e"ist
Inade#uate dietar! intake, gastrectom!, abnormal intrinsic factor
function, bacterial overgrowth, ileal d!sfunction
o $ernicious anemia is classicall! defined as above
Pathophysiology
1.$atholog!
o Gastric parietal cells fail to make%secrete intrinsic factor
&hought to be due to an autoimmune disorder with geneticpredisposition
Associated with '(A A2, A), B*, and t!pe A blood
Antiparietal cell antibodies +- of pts./ as well as intrinsic0factor
antibodies +-0* of pts./ are present
Antibodies are postulated to lead to severe gastric atroph!
and achlorh!dria +lack of secretion of h!drochloric acid/
