Homozygous alpha-thalassemia associated with hypospadias in three survivors.

American journal of medical genetics - 29 Jan 1999

Fung T Y, Kin L T, Kong L C, Keung L C

Abstract excerpt

We report three cases of homozygous alpha-thalassemia (alphaTH) who survived beyond the neonatal period, all with hypospadias. A review of literature identified two additional male cases of homozygous alphaTH who survived, and both had hypospadias. The simultaneous occurrence of the two conditions seems beyond coincidence and may be causally related. Possible pathogenesis for the association may be 1) homozygous...
