Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder of the hemoglobin, in which sickling of red blood cells results in hemolysis and vaso-occlusion. Newborn screening has led to early identification of SCD in many regions across Canada. While homozygous SCD (HbSS) is the most severe, other sickling syndromes (eg HbSC) may present similarly. Patients with SCD can present with a number of complications.
