A novel case of Hb Bart's hydrops fetalis following prenatal diagnosis: Case report from Huizhou, China
It is imperative that Hb Bart's hydrops fetalis syndrome be diagnosed with the utmost expediency. If results of molecular analysis are not consistent with the clinical hematological findings, the presence of a novel thalassemia could be suspected. To identify the novel genotype, the SMRT sequencing represents an effective method for achieving an accurate diagnosis.
