Abstract: Thalassemias are common monogenic autosomal recessive hemoglobin disorders. The usually asymptomatic heterozygotes (β‐thalassemia traits, βTT) may rarely develop non‐transfusion‐dependent‐thalassemia (NTDT) due to co‐inheritance of supernumerary α‐globin genes. Literature on phenotypic/genotypic features of these rare combinations… read more here.
