Özet
$\beta$ thalassemia minor is frequent in mediterranean countries. İt is a benign disorder and does not warrant any therapeutical intervention. We transplanted a 25-year-old Turkish male who was diagnosed as lymphoblastic lymphoma and had $\beta$ thalassemia minor as well. He received peripheral blood stem cells transplantation from his HLA-identical sibling who was not a carrier of $\beta$ thalassemia. After the allogeneic transplantation we did not only observe remission of the lymphoblastic lymphoma but also the disappearance of b thalassemia minor.
