We report the presence of two different dglobin gene mutations causing d?-thalassemia in association with homozygous (-a3.7/-a3.7) genotype for the first time in an Omani child with a low hemoglobin A2 (HbA2) of 0.8 %. Direct nucleotide sequencing revealed compound heterozygote mutations in the patient’s d-globin genes: HbA2-Yialousa (HBD: c.82G[C) and HbA2- Wrens (HBD: c.295G[A). In Oman, where a and b-thalassemia and HbS are prevalent, an awareness of the presence of different d-globin gene mutations is important as complex interactions between these hemoglobinopathies can lead to the misdiagnosis of b-thalassemia carriers.
