[Discovery of hemoglobin J Baltimore in an episode of methemoglobinemia in an infant].

A case of a heterozygote for Hb J Baltimore is reported in a French family. This variant hemoglobin was coincidentally discovered during an episode of methemoglobinemia in a 6-week-old baby. The father and one of the brothers were also carriers of the trait. Hematological findings for all of them were normal. As Hb J Baltimore is a frequently occurring hemoglobin variant, we discuss: its possible role in the appearance of methemoglobin, and whether this mutation in different racial groups (Caucasians of West Europe, Canadians, and American blacks) has a common origin or more probably arises from a number of independent mutations.
