title: [Heart in sickle-cell anemia (author's transl)].
abstract: Sickle-cell anemia may give heart troubles: heart insufficiency by chronic anemia, pseudo-rhumatic heart, chronic pulmonary heart, coronarian ischemia and cardiomyopathic syndrome. The homo or heterozygotic status and the age are important factors. A rather clear pathogenesis has been built up for these various troubles but therapy has only a limited efficiency.
