Question

Will a child with sickle cell disease be affected by bone marrow donation?

Answer

Sickle cell disease is an acute hemolytic anemia that occurs in individuals with genetic defects after consuming fresh broad beans. By avoiding the continuous or excessive consumption of broad beans, the disease can be prevented. Severe cases may include coma, convulsions, and acute renal failure, but there are usually no serious sequelae.
