Transfusional Iron Overload

Transfusional Iron Overload is an acquired systemic iron overload disorder characterized by progressive accumulation of excess body iron resulting from repeated red blood cell transfusions that deliver iron in excess of physiological excretory capacity, leading to toxic deposition of storage iron in parenchymal organs such as the liver, heart, and endocrine glands.
