A total of 100 Sudanese patients with sickle cell disease (45 were in sickle cell disease and 55 were healthy individuals). Results: The result showed that TWBC level was significantly increased in SCD (24.95±14.73) when compared to control subjects (6.79±1.77) with p-value 0.000.Lymphocyte level was significantly increase in SCD (38.47±20.62) when compared in control (30.05±5.88) with p-value 0.005. Neutrophil level was significantly increased in SCD (93.97±4.79) when compared with control (45.36±3.56) with p-value 0.001.
