Osseous X-Ray Findings in Thalassemia Minornized for many years and are well documented in this book. However, little attention has been directed to the underlying osseous abnormalities of the carriers of thalassemia. Therefore, this chapter will deal with bone radiology of thalassemia trait or minor, on the basis of personal experience and

Cardiac Complications in Thalassemia Syndromes: Clinical and Radiological Considerationsozygous thalassemia syndromes. In many cases, symptoms of heart lesions may appear in early childhood, but death usually occurs during the 2nd or 3rd decade [14–16]. Early diagnosis and treatment of cardiac complications in this disease are essential for the survival of these patients [40].

Radiological Aspects of Marrow Heterotopia in Thalassemia MH in .-Thalassemia. Although MH is not a new entity to the pathologists, it is a comparatively recent one from the clinical, radiological, and therapeutic standpoint. Lately, computerized tomography (CT) has contributed to a more thorough investigation of MH [20]. In this paper, MH will be reviewe

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Marrow Heterotopia in the Hemoglobinopathiesen described in detail in other parts of this chapter and by other investigators [4, 6, 8]. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has great potential for clinical evaluation of bone marrow disorders. This is due to its inherently high contrast resolution, its lack of streak artifacts from thick cortical

MH occurs usually in microscopic forms but occasionally in macroscopic tumor like masses located in various tissues and organs, more commonly in the thorax. Although MH is usually asymptomatic for long periods, it sometimes presents symptoms an

Unfortunately, the effectiveness of splenectomy is not easily predictable. About 1 year after the operation, a small proportion of splenectomized thalassemic patients have again increased tran
