Molecular characterization of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency variants is essential, especially since the biochemical characterization has lost its significance due to the individual variability. As a result, cases can be misdiagnosed. The present study was designed to determine the incidence of G6PD mediterranean (Med) mutation among Egyptian children with G6PD deficiency as well as its molecular association with the G6PD 1311T silent polymorphism
