The disorder may be acquired or inherited like Fanconi’s anemia. In this study, survial and prognostic factors in acquired aplastic anemia is determined. This analytic cross-sectional study was done on 224 child patients who referred to blood disease clinic of Hazrat Ali-Asghar Hospital from 1977 to 2000. Data of patients was collected retrospectively in census methods. Survival state, demographic variables, signs & symptoms, laboratory test and kind of treatment were all recorded. Data was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curves and life tables. In order to determine the factors influencing survival log rank test and cox-regression analysis in SPSS software, log rank test and cox-regression analysis in SPSS software were used. 5 and 10-year survival of acquired aplastic anemia were 55%, 41.6% respectively. In bivariate analysis, absolute neutrophil count less than 100/μlit (P=0.00) and ESR more than 60 mm/h (P=0.04) were negatively associated with survival and improved survival was associated with pallor at time of diagnosis(P=0.04). In multivariate analysis just association between absolute neutrophil count (EXP(B)=5.18) and pallor (EXP(B)=0.41) with survival were proved. In this study, survival of patients with acquired aplastic anemia in comparison with other countries was in the lowest range of survivals.
