Abstract
The –? 3.7 rightward deletion is the most frequent ?-globin mutation but ??? (anti 3.7) triplication is relatively rare. We describe 2 years old female that was heterozygous of IVSI-5 mutation and homozygous ? 3.7 triplication. The hematological picture of B-thalassemia heterozygotes with a triplicated ?-globin gene arrangement is variable. Suggested that homozygous alpha-gene triplication interacts with a severe B-thalassemia mutation to cause ?-chain excess equivalent to that observed in homozygous B-thalassemia intermedia.
