General Info about Thalassemia |

Thalassemia was first described by Cooley and Lee in 1925. Most of their patients were of Mediterranean ancestry and a majority of them suffered anemia. Hence this group of anemias are also known as Cooley's Anemia or Mediterranean Anemia. The thalassemias are a group of genetic blood disorders that affect a person's ability to produce hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the protein in our red blood cells that carries oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body. |
