Abstract excerpt

alpha-thalassaemia is a common inherited haemoglobin disorder that can cause only mild symptoms in carriers and is often either not diagnosed or mistaken for iron deficiency anaemia in the Netherlands. Although considered rare in North-Europeans, we also regularly observe common and rare defects in this population. It is important to be alert for the mild symptoms of these carriers because compound heterozygous...
