Abstract :
The Imersland-Gräsbeck Syndrome (IGS) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by megaloblastic anemia due to a selective Vitamin B 12 malabsorption in association with mild proteinuria. This syndrome can be diagnosed and treated easily. Herein,we describe an infant with IGS as a rare etiology of growth retardation with diarrhea,vomiting and therapy-resistant proteinuria.
