A case of delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction found to be the D-- phenotype during burn treatment

Case reports: delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction in sickle cell disease.

This article reports the details of delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions in four patients with sickle cell disease. These cases demonstrate the characteristics of the reactions, the significant risks involved, and the principles useful in diagnosis and treatment. Patients with sickle cell disease are at particular risk for delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions because they may be transfuse...

Delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction due to anti-Jk(a).

BACKGROUND Kidd antibodies are very heterogeneous and difficult to detect. They have been frequently implicated in delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions (DHTRs). CASE REPORT A 64 year old female (6 pregnancies, 2 deliveries, 4 abortions) with none red cell (RBC) transfusions in the history was admitted to hospital due to pneumonia and severe anemia. On admittance hemoglobin (Hb) level was 6...

Delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions.

Delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions continue to occur in spite of the use of all of the currently available techniques of antibody detection. Both low titers of the antibodies and dosage effects appear to contribute to the failure of detection. A rapid anamnestic response can occur with transfusion of the appropriate antigen. The clinical as well as the laboratory presentation of delayed he...

Cerebrovascular accident during a delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction in a patient with sickle cell anemia.

A 28-year-old woman with sickle cell anemia suffered a left hemispheric cerebrovascular accident associated with severe right-sided weakness during a delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction owing to anti-rh' (C) and anti-S. The anti-rh' (C) had been identified four years earlier at a different hospital but neither the patient, her family, nor any member of the staff of the hospital where she was...
