Hemoglobin E trait reexamined: a cause of microcytosis and erythrocytosis.

V F Fairbanks, G S Gilchrist, B Brimhall, J A Jereb, E C Goldston.   

Abstract

The current Indochinese resettlement program in the United States has resulted in an increase in the number of persons with hemoglobin E trait. American physicians should be aware of the hematologic expressions of this innocuous condition. The hematologic manifestations of 21 persons with hemoglobin E trait were evaluated. The subjects were of Tai-dam, Vietnamese, Chinese, Laotian, and European origin. These studies showed uniform hematologic manifestations in hemoglobin E trait, characterized by slight microcytosis, by morphologic features resembling those of thalassemia minor, and often by increased erythrocyte count. Hemoglobin instability also was confirmed.
