EF Bart's disease is a rare form of nontransfusion-dependant thalassemia (NTDT) due to the coinheritance of homozygous hemoglobin  E  ( β  E / β  E ) genotype with hemoglobin H disease. These individuals are routinely found to have thalassemia intermedia with moderate anemia, increased hemoglobin Bart's and hemoglobin F on electrophoresis. The contribution of hemoglobin F-inducing polymorphisms in this disease has not been described previously. Here, we describe the hematological profile in a young child with coinheritance of G γ -XmnI and A γ -globin gene polymorphisms in EF Bart's disease. Interestingly, in this rare form of NTDT, normal HbF and elevated HbA2 were noted.
