The book consists of 44 individual real-life case reports. Each case includes a brief clinical history, basic laboratory investigations, and initial impressions, leading to one or more possible diagnoses. Then, through more targeted investigations, the authors deliver a final diagnosis, which in most cases is at the molecular level. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor each case, a brief discussion is included, highlighting critical clinical and laboratory features, as well as recent progress in the area. Each individual case illustrates the close connection, in contemporary medicine, between clinical findings, haematological findings, and molecular analysis. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIllustrative Case Studies in Haematology\u003c\/i\u003e includes: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatients with sickle cell disease, ranging from nearly asymptomatic to life-threatening\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePatients with different forms of thalassaemia\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKernicterus in a G6PD deficient female infant\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAcquired alpha thalassaemia and myelodysplastic syndrome\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eParoxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria in a G6PD deficient patient\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first case ever reported of homozygosity for an unstable haemoglobin\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCases with long-term follow-up spanning decades, demonstrating disease progression, complications and therapeutic outcomes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIllustrative Case Studies in Haematology\u003c\/i\u003e includes patients from many different countries: therefore it may hold value to haematologists throughout the world, seeking to diagnose both common and rare disorders with clarity and confidence.
