In the Nov. 25 issue of CMAJ, 2 errors occurred in the article on fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.1 In the case description on page 1181, the level of mean corpuscular volume should read “102 fL,” rather than 82 fL. In the laboratory markers section on page 1183, mean corpuscular volume should read “greater than 98 fL” in both instances in the first 2 paragraphs. The phrase currently reads “less than 98 fL.”
