    AbstractHemoglobin SO-Arab is a rare sickling disorder with a clinical course similar to that of hemoglobin SS. Hemoglobin C-Harlem is another rare condition that produces sickling disorders in affected individuals with a disease course and electrophoretic findings similar to that of hemoglobin SO-Arab. The authors report the case of a 38-year-old African American man with hemoglobin SO-Arab and the challenges that may arise in working up a rare hemoglobinopathy.
