Towards an optimization of the management of endocrine complications of thalassemia

Mohamed El Kholy et al. J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab. 2014 Sep.

Abstract

Children with thalassemia are living longer due to better care. Physicians dealing with this group of patients now have to contend with new challenges resulting from iron overload. Endocrine complications represent the most common morbidities encountered. To provide a better quality of life, these complications have to be addressed in a consistent way. For this purpose, we have compiled a set of recommendations to help physicians provide the best care possible to these patients.
