<br/><br/> Symptomatic bone marrow disease is an uncommon complication of cystinosis that has only been reported previously in a handful of case reports. Our study aimed to characterize the hematological manifestations of nephropathic cystinosis and to correlate them with different factor like growth, thyroid and renal functions. Our results showed that Anemia was present in 80% of cases. Three cases of 20 patient (15%) experienced cytopenia affecting more than 1 hematologic cell line and bone marrow biopsy and aspirate was done showing deposition of cystine crystals and normal cellularity. There is a significant relation between anemia and CCCS, Serum Ferritin, creatinine, and also in TSH
