Key Clinical Message: When a person has both HS and beta‐thalassemia, their clinical symptoms tend to be less severe. This is because these two conditions have contrasting features. If the clinical symptoms and laboratory results cannot be solely attributed to hemolytic anemia, it is important to consider the possibility of another form of hemolytic anemia coexisting. We present a 26‐year‐old woman who has been experiencing abdominal pain, jaundice, and anemia for the past 15 years. Initially, she was diagnosed with gallstones and splenomegaly, but after a thorough hematology examination conducted by expert colleagues, it was discovered that she had both beta‐thalassemia and hereditary spherocytosis. The osmotic fragility test confirmed this diagnosis. The patient was advised to undergo both splenectomy and cholecystectomy procedures. It is worth noting that the co‐occurrence of these two conditions is rare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
