Here’s
an interesting case which appeared on the Haematoogy Interest Group Facebook
page. To me it looks like a sickle cell carrier with a serious case of hereditary
persistence of fetal haemaoglobin…but look at all those target cells. Is there
some sort of thalassaemia too?
Having said that it is some years sinceI’ve
done any haemoglobinopathy work.
Perhaps the most telling point here is the various
comment made by people who supposedly have more than a passing knowledge of the
field. Sickle cell disease? Hb E?
Some of the posts in this group should be taken
with a very large pinch of salt…
