Abstract: Thalassemias are group of inherited autosomal recessive hematologic disorders that cause hemolytic anemia. Worldwide, patients with thalassemia beta/hemoglobin E (-thal/HbE) represent 50 % of severe beta thalassemia. The highest frequencies are observed in India and throughout Southeast Asia including Indonesia. In one study by Suchaya et al. (2008), 0.2 % of all pregnant women were affected by -thal/HbE disease. In this case report, we would discuss management of patient 28 years old with diagnose first pregnancy 27-28 weeks + moderate anemia (Hb 6.2 g/dL) + Thalassemia (-thal/HbE). She got three times blood transfusions during pregnancy. Finally, at 37-38 weeks she delivered 2500 g male baby in vigorous condition with no major congenital anomaly.
