Abstract
The first example of hemoglobin Suresnes, α2 141 (HC3) Arg → His β2, has recently been reported by Poyart et al (1). Hb Suresnes was detected by electrophoresis in a 6 year old boy who was found by routine hematological examination to have an abnormal RBC count and Hb concentration. The propositus and the two other members of the family who also had the variant did not show any clinical symptoms.
