Abstract
Hungary is a country in Central Europe where hemoglobinopathies were known to be rather rare. That is the reason why no survey was organized for studying the frequency of the occurrence of certain hemoglobinopathies in the Hungarian population. In spite of this, during our diagnostic work in the last fifteen years, several abnormal hemoglobin variants, as well as a not negligible number of thalassemias were found.
