[Hemoglobin D Punjab. Apropos of 2 families]
Two families who are carriers of hemoglobin DPunjab in the heterozygous state are described. This is the first time hemoglobin DPunjab has been reported in Switzerland. The propositus of the first family had two periods of acute hemolysis, probably drug-induced, which were followed by reversible renal complications and which led to the discovery of the hemoglobin. Study of the second family was undertaken because of anemia in one of its members.
