Did the Proband Have Thalassemia Intermedia or Severe Thalassemia Trait?
I enjoyed reading Bilgen et al.’s case report, The effect of HBB: (c*+96T>C (3’UTR+1570 T>C) on the mild β-thalassemia intermedia pheonotype, in the recent issue of the Journal (2011; 28: 219-222). I congratulate the authors for exploring at the molecular level at least one of the thalassemia minima that fits well with the present clinical thalassemia nomenclature. Based on their clinical descr...

متن کاملHbS-Sicilian (δβ)0-Thalassemia: A Rare Variant of Sickle Cell
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is caused by a mutation in the sixth codon of the β-globin gene on chromosome 11, which leads to a single amino acid substitution (glutamine to valine). Sickle-(δβ)0-thalassemia is a rare variant of sickle cell disease (delta-beta thalassemia occurring in association with sickle hemoglobin, HbS), sparsely reported in literature, and has been associated with symptomatol...
متن کاملConcomitant Gilbert's syndrome and thalassemia trait.
A 23 years old male presented with fluctuating jaundice since age of five years. He was diagnosed to have thalassemia trait along with Gilbert's syndrome. He had disproportionately higher bilirubin concentration for either disorder alone. The importance of the concomitance of these disorders is highlighted.
متن کاملLow HbA2 Level in β-Thalassemia Trait
Dr. Köseler and her colleagues reported the presence of δthalassemia in 3 out of 12 patients carrying the β-thalassemia trait with low HbA2 in the recent issue of this journal without giving any explanations for the remaining 9 cases (2012; 29: 289-290) [1]. I wish that they would also look for the presence of αthalassemia, at least in those 9 cases, because this seems to be the more prevalent ...
