On the basis of peripheral smear findings, sickling test was performed which was found to be positive. There after a serum electrophoresis confirmed the diagnosis of sickle cell anemia of heterogeneous type. The imaging studies was later done which showed marked infarction of humerus and haem...
What is sickle cell anemia and what would a peripheral blood smear look like from a sickle cell patient?Hemoglobin:Hemoglobin is a conjugated protein made up of iron, protoporphyrin IX type III and globin. The globin portion is made of four protein subunits...

and ISCs are not seen on the peripheral blood smear. The usual partition of Hb A and Hb S in sickle cell trait is 60 : 40 owing to a greater posttranslational affinity of α chains for βAthan for βSchains.6When α-thalassemia is coinherited with sickle cell trait, the preferent...
