Overview
Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder that affects red blood cells. The red blood cells become sickle-shaped (crescent shaped) and have difficulty passing through small blood vessels. It is most common in West and Central Africa, but approximately 70,000 - 100,000 individuals in the United States have sickle cell disease and 3 million have sickle cell trait.
