Transient erythroblastopenia of childhood (TEC) is a self-limited, immune-mediated pure red cell aplasia typically affecting children under four years, characterized by normocytic anemia and reticulocytopenia. We report an atypical presentation in an older child with an unusual jaundice-like presentation due to lighting conditions, which underscores the importance of early reticulocyte count in evaluating pediatric anemia. Supportive transfusion and expectant management led to complete spontaneous recovery. Prompt recognition prevents unnecessary invasive testing and ensures optimal outcomes.
