In this study, we evaluated the impact of mutations of the HFE and ferroportin gene on iron overload in thalassemia intermedia and betas/betathal patients. Neither HFE (C282Y and H63D) nor ferroportin(Val162del) mutations were determinants of total body iron status, as assessed by ferritin levels, in either group of patients.
