Sickle cell disease is a hereditary, autosomal recessive pathology caused by the replacement of adenine thymin in position 6 beta globin gene, producing anomalous hemoglobin (hemoglobin S- HbS). It characterized chronic inflammatory state with hemolytic anemia and vaso-occlusive phenomena occurs when HbS gene homozygosis (SS) or heterozygosis, association other variant hemoglobins (SD, SC, SE) ...
