A 2d case of haemoglobin Belfast (beta 15 (A 12) Trp replaced by Arg) observed in a French patient.
Haemoglobin Belfast was initially observed in an Irish patient. The second case, found in a French patient suffering from a metastatic carcinoma, is here described. Both observations are compared from clinical, haematological and biochemical points of view. Functional and spectrophotometrical studies confirmed the slight abnormalities already described.
