The authors report on a 24-year old patient with Blackfan-Diamond syndrome who developed a Hodgkin's disease. This patient became transfusion-dependent at the age of 10, after an initial period of corticosensitivity, and after failure of androgens. He developed hemochromatosis despite from parenteral chelation therapy. He died of infectious complications 4 months after the diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma. A review of the literature shows an increased incidence of malignancies in Blackfan-Diamond syndrome (three cases of leukemia), and in similar disease (thalassemia and sickle cell disease), but not in other patients with hemosiderosis (primitive hemochromatosis, end-stage renal failure under dialysis). Etiopathogenic hypotheses are discussed.
