    Background:

    • Sickle cell syndromes are a diverse group of blood disorders characterized by the presence of sickle hemoglobin.
    • These conditions affect red blood cells, leading to various clinical manifestations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To emphasize the critical importance of accurate diagnosis in managing sickle cell syndromes.
    • To highlight the need for precise diagnosis due to differing prognoses and treatment strategies.

    Main Methods:

    • Diagnostic evaluation of sickle cell syndromes.
    • Assessment of patient and family medical history.
    • Clinical observation and laboratory analysis.

    Main Results:
