Unrecognized hemoglobin SE disease as microcytosis. Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2016 Jul;29(3):309-10 Authors: Smith A, Cooper B, Guileyardo J, Mora A Abstract Hemoglobin SE disease was first described during the 1950s as a relatively benign microcytosis, but increasing prevalence has revealed a predisposition towards vasoocclusive sickling. Recognition of SE hemoglobinopathies' potential complications is crucial so medical measures can be utilized to avoid multiorgan injury. PMID: 27365881 [PubMed]
