Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Beta-Thalassemia is a common autosomal recessive disorder resulting from over 200 different mutations of the beta-globin genes. The spectrum of beta-thalassemia mutations in Greece has been previously described in the population of the capital city of Athens, or in beta-thalassemia patients having transfusion therapy. The aim of the present study was to identify the distribution of the most common...
