AB  - Genetically  inherited  hemolytic  anemia,  usually  mild  and  often  inapparent  until  adulthood.  This  disease  is  mainly  encountered  in  populations  of  African  descent,  but  also  in  populations  of  Sicilian  and  Hispanic  descent.  Hemoglobin  C  (Hb  C)  is  one  of  the  most  common  structural  hemoglobin  variants  in  the  human  population.  Persons  with  hemoglobin  C  trait  (Hb  AC)  are  phenotypically  normal,  with  no  clinically  evident  limitations  or  symptoms,  while  those  with  Hemoglobin  C  Disease  (Hb  C)  may  have  a  mild  degree  of  hemolytic  anemia,  splenomegaly,  and  borderline  anemia.
