Pancreatic Sonography in Thalassemia Major

Klinische Pädiatrie, 1983
Four patients with thalassemia major and well documented transfusional anamnesis were investigated sonographically.

Subjects with thalassemia major frequently have bone disorders of debatable pathogenesis. We attempt here to analyze the relationships between siderosis and thalassemic osteodystrophy by assessing calcium-phosphorus balance, hormone-vitamin homeostasis, osteoblastic-osteoclastic activity parameters, and bone mineral density (BMD) in 30 patients with ...

Growth and puberty in thalassemia major.

Journal of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism : JPEM, 2003
Present transfusional regimen protocols increase the life expectancy of patients with beta-thalassemia major, but cause a progressive iron overload that can be prevented or limited only by appropriate iron chelation. Siderosis is responsible for the clinical complications of the disease. Short stature and hypogonadism are extremely frequent in patients
