Abstract

We report a 6-year-old child with Hb H disease due to homozygosity for Hb Sallanches [α104(G11)Cys→Tyr], an unstable α2 chain variant. This child presented with a hemolytic anemia of intermediate severity and had never been transfused. This variant often remains undetected in the heterozygous state.
