Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH), a disease involving iron accumulation in internal organs, occurs in about 1 in 200-400 Caucasians. The gene mutated in this disorder is termed HFE. The present study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic utility and outcome of genetic testing for HH in the service of public health care. METHODS: 137 subjects were referred by health clinics and general hospitals for...
