Beta-thalassemias are a group of hereditary blood disorders characterized by anomalies in the synthesis of the beta chains of hemoglobin resulting in variable phenotypes ranging from severe anemia to clinically asymptomatic individuals. The total annual incidence of symptomatic individuals is estimated at ...

Beta-thalassemia is prevalent in Mediterranean countries, the Middle East, Central Asia, India, Southern China, and the Far East as well as countries along the north coast of Africa and in South America. The highest carrier frequency is reported in Cyprus (14%), Sardinia (10.3%), and Southe...
Sickle beta thalassemia is a rare inherited disease that causes the formation of abnormal hemoglobin and reduced production of beta globin chains. Oro-facial manifestations seen in sickle beta anemia varies depending on the severity of the condition. This may include: lateral displacement of the orbit...
The aim of the study was to conduct an anthropometric analysis of the parameters of the head and face in adult patients with beta thalassemia major. The anthropometric parameters of the soft tissues of the head and face were studied in 34 patients with large β-thalassemia: 16 men (mean age...
beta Thalassemia is an inherited genetic disorder of hemoglobin synthesis characterized by a reduction of beta chains of globin. Typical features of patients with beta thalassemia are skeletal modifications, particularly in the skull and in the facial bones. In thalassemia major, involvement of the ...
