| sickle cell anemia |
A genetic disease in which the hemoglobin protein is mutated, giving red blood cells a twisted shape that may painfully block circulation. This often leads to medical crises and may cause an early death. The recessive disease occurs in children who have inherited the mutated gene from both their parents, mostly among people of African or Mediterranean origin.

| sickle cell anemia |
An inherited disorder of the red blood cells in which the hemoglobin (the red oxygen carrying pigment of the cell) is different from the usual type. This unusual hemoglobin results in the production of unusually shaped cells, which do not survive the usual length of time in the blood circulation. Thus, anemia results. Sickle cell anemia is the result of the inheritance of the gene for sickle cell hemoglobin (S) from both parents.
