ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

This was a prospective observational study to evaluate abnormalities in lipid profile in 50 children with transfusion dependent thalassemia. Dyslipidemia characterized by high triglycerides, low high density lipoprotein (HDL), and high total cholesterol HDL ratio was noted. These pro atherogenic risk factors may be lead to significant cardiovascular morbidity in these patients.
