ABSTRACT
Two diabetic patients with unusual high levels of glycosilated hemoglobin measured by ion exchange chromatography are described. Further studies revealed a persistence of fetal hemoglobin in both cases. This condition produces falsely high levels of glycosilated hemoglobin, when ion exchange chromatography is used. These cases may be overtreated with risk of hypoglycemia. Patients with inappropiate levels of glycosilated hemoglobin should be investigated for hemoglobinopathies
