Homozygous haemoglobin D Punjab.
A homozygote for the gene controlling Hb D Punjab is described. The diagnosis is supported by the peptide analysis of the haemoglobin and the examination of both parents. There was no anaemia or reticulocytosis and there was balanced synthesis of both the alphaA- and betaD-globin chains in reticulocytes. However, the oxygen affinity of the haemolysate had a small but significantly higher oxygen...
متن کاملHaemoglobin sickle d punjab: - a case report.
Haemoglobin S D-Punjab is a rare compound heterozygous haemoglobinopathy characterised by the presence of two β globin gene variants: Β6(GAG→GTG) and Β121(GAA→CAA). These patients' clinical and haematological features mimic haemoglobin S disease. We describe the first case of doubly heterozygous HbSD-Punjab from Malaysia managed with regular blood transfusion at the age of one. This case highli...
متن کاملUnusual splenic sinusoidal iron overload in sickle cell/haemoglobin D-Punjab disease.
Sickle cell/haemoglobin D-Punjab disease is a disorder with similar clinical features to sickle cell anaemia. This report describes the case of an 11 year old boy with this disease who was treated with regular transfusions from infancy. He underwent splenectomy at the age of 10 years for hypersplenism. Histology of the spleen revealed a striking pattern of heavy sinusoidal endothelial iron load...
متن کاملHomozygous haemoglobin E in association with hereditary ovalocytosis.
Hereditary stomatocytic ovalocytosis and haemoglobin E are two genes present in 3-5% of Malays. This is a report of a 22 year old Malay college student with homozygous haemoglobin E and hereditary stomatocytic ovalocytosis where the clinical effects seen were the result of the summation of these genes: he was asymptomatic, presenting with moderate jaundice, moderate hepatosplenomegaly, and a mi...
متن کاملHemoglobin sickle D Punjab — a case report
Compound heterozygosity for βS/βD results in a severe hemolytic anemia and a clinical syndrome similar to that of sickle cell disease. Here, we report a case of HbSD Punjab disease. A 10 year old female child residing at Nagpur, Maharashtra presented with severe hemolytic anemia, hepatosplenomegaly and occasional pains in bones and abdomen. Initially, she was thought to be a case of sickle cell...
