[Anemia in COPD].
COPD, a "trendy" disease, didn't yet reveal all its secrets. A frequently subject discussed lately in the specialty literature is about its association to anemia. This is taking in consideration that in all pneumology books COPD is considered a disease associated to the polyglobulia. The authors demonstrate in this review the impact of anemia on the disease as well as the analogies between this obstructive disease and other chronic diseases. In order to do so, the details of pathogenetic impact of disease, the clinical features and possible corrections of this association are reviewed.
