  • Title: Dactylitis in a child with sickle cell trait.
    Author: Jadavji T, Prober CG.
    Journal: Can Med Assoc J; 1985 Apr 01; 132(7):814-5. PubMed ID: 3978504.
    Abstract:
    Dactylitis commonly occurs in patients with homozygous hemoglobin S disease (sickle cell anemia), sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease or sickle cell-beta-thalassemia. A case is reported of dactylitis associated with sickle cell trait, a very rare occurrence. It may be that in this patient the disorder was secondary to severe diarrhea and dehydration.
