We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change.

This case highlights the potential for maintaining pre‐operative normoglycaemia without glucocorticoids and emphasises recognising tumour vascularity on imaging to anticipate intra‐operative bleeding risk. ABSTRACT Doege–Potter Syndrome (DPS)
