Introduction: Mutations in the HFE gene have been shown to be associated with hemochromatosis which is observed in beta-thalassemia major. In this study, we determined the HFE gene mutations (C282Y and H63D) among b-thalassemia major patients to investigate the effect of these mutations on serum Ferritin levels.
Material And Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 105 b-thalassemia subjects with a history of regular blood transfusion were selected.
