During the last 30 years, in addition to the considerable progress made in
control and prevention of thalassemias(3), there have also been major advances in
their symptomatic management, at least in wealthier countries where appropriate
facilities are available. Remarkable improvements in survival in the severe forms
of thalassemia have followed the more judicious use of blood transfusion and, in
particular, the ability to manage the iron accumulation resulting from
transfusion with its severe and ultimately lethal effects on endocrine and
cardiac function.
