Sickle cell anemia

Sickle cell anemias are chronic hemolytic diseases that may induce three types of acute accidents: severe anemia, severe bacterial infections, and ischemic vasoocclusive accidents (VOA) caused by sickle-shaped red blood cells obstructing small blood vessels and capillaries. Many diverse complications can occur.

	Sickle cell disease with double stroke in a Moroccan family.
	Hamzi K, Itto AB, Jouhadi Z, Slassi I, Nadifi S. J Mol Neurosci. 2013;50(2):311-3.
	We report the case of a girl aged 11 years, who presented two strokes in the interval of 8 months, which manifested by a complete right hemiplegia and aphasia confirmed by head CT scan; the electrophoresis of the hemoglobin and the molecular test had confirmed the diagnosis of sickle-cell disease, and we were allowed to spread better reflection on the prevention of stroke, which remains a frequent and serious complication of sickle-cell disease.
