Abstract

Two cases of beta thalassaemia with pseudoxanthoma elasticum and angioid streaks (Grönblad-Strandberg syndrome) are reported. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a combination between these two genetically determined disorders. The possible theories of the pathogenesis of pseudoxanthoma elasticum and angioid streaks are discussed.
