Abstract
The article presents 2 clinical cases of genetically confirmed hereditary hemochromatosis. The main criteria for diagnosis and treatment of this disease are given. In case of presence of cytolytic syndrome, it is necessary to include hemochromatosis in the diagnostic search. It is emphasized that timely and rational treatment of hemochromatosis can prevent the development of liver cirrhosis and significantly increase the life expectancy of patients.
