Two cases of alpha chain disease are described. The clinicopathological features of the two patients were very similar, and similar to the numerous cases described in the literature, presenting the gastrointestinal form of the disease. In both patients the pathological protein was not noticeable in the electrophoretic pattern. The diagnosis was established by immunoselection with electrophoresis. The alpha-HCD proteins belonged to the alpha 1 subclass and in no case was it found in the urine. The patients were young Venezuelan mestizos and seem to be the first cases reported in Venezuela.
本文描述了两例α链病。这两名患者的临床病理特征非常相似，与文献中描述的众多病例相似，均表现为该疾病的胃肠道形式。两名患者的病理蛋白在电泳图谱中均不明显。通过电泳免疫选择法确诊。α-HCD蛋白属于α1亚类，且在尿液中均未发现。患者为年轻的委内瑞拉混血儿，似乎是委内瑞拉报道的首例病例。
