Abstract

Hb F gestesyonel dönemde sentez edilir ve doğum ile birlikte miktarı giderek azalır. Erişkin bir insanda Hb F < %2 oranında bulunur. HbF’nin oksijene olan afinitesi HbA’ya göre daha fazladır. Bu nedenle HbF dokulara oksijen taşımak için uygun değildir. Biz bu çalışmamızda; periferik kanında %100 oranında HbF bulunan yetişkin bir olgudaki hematolojik ve biyokimyasal değişiklikleri inceledik. Anemi semptomları ile hematoloji kliniğinde takip edilen 66 yaşındaki erkek hastanın tam kan sayımında; RBC: 3.1 1012/L, Hb: 8.3 g/dL, Hct: 27.6 %, MCV: 90.1 f/L, PLT: 793 000 103/mm3 idi. Serum ferritin: 1094 ng/mL, total bilirubin: 4 mg/dL, direkt bilirubin: 0.68 mg/dL olarak tespit edildi. Hastanın hemoglobin varyant analizinde %100 oranında HbF olduğu belirlendi. Hastada HbA’nın hiç olmadığı tespit edildi. Hasta talasemi intermedia olarak değerlendirildi.

100% HbF Found Thalassemia Intermedia Case in Peripheral Blood

Abstract

Hb F is synthesized in the gestational period and the amount decreases gradually with delivery. In an adult person, Hb F is <2%. The affinity of HbF to oxygen is higher than HbA. HbF is therefore not suitable for transporting oxygen to tissues. In this study; We investigated the hematological and biochemical changes in an adult patient with 100% HbF in peripheral blood. Complete blood count of a 66-year-old male patient followed up in hematology clinic with symptoms of anemia; RBC: 3.1 1012 / L, Hb: 8.3 g / dL, Hct: 27.6%, MCV: 90.1 f / L, PLT: 793 000 103 / mm3. Serum ferritin: 1094 ng / mL, total bilirubin: 4 mg / dL, direct bilirubin: 0.68 mg / dL. The hemoglobin variant analysis revealed 100% HbF. The patient had no HbA. The patient was evaluated as thalassemia intermedia.
