Hemoglobin (Hb) Sabine is an unstable Hb variant that causes hemolytic anemia in heterozygous state, with inclusion bodies in the red blood cells (RBC). This hemoglobin is the result of a point mutation at codon 91(CTG)®(CCG) of the beta-globin gene. We report, for the first time in South America, the identification of Hb Sabine in a nine-month-old female baby, referred to our laboratory bearing a severe hemolytic anemia. We emphasize the need for the correct characterization of this unstable hemoglobin mainly for therapeutic purposes and for genetic counseling.
