Abstract
Two patients aged 11 and 22 years who had had episodes of megaloblastic anaemia since early childhood were investigated. Anaemia and low values for vitamin B 12 in serum responded to parenteral administration of vitamin B 12. Vitamin B 12 was not absorbed from the intestine even when intrinsic factor was given with the vitamin. Gastric juice was normal. Absorption of other nutrients was normal.
