IVSII-74 T > G: As harmless as we thought?

Abstract

Background: IVSII-74 T > G is one of the most frequently identified polymorphic sites on the beta-globin gene. In our report, we present three cases with low mean corpuscular volume (MCV) value in three and high red blood cell (RBC) value in two of the cases. The objective of this study was to further analyse the reason for condition of three patients, who were referred for the investigation of persistent anemia.
