Combined Group I and III ABO Discrepancies in Multiple Myeloma with IgG-Lambda Type: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
OBJECTIVE To report a case with unusual ABO discrepancies caused by coexistence of the loss of anti-B isoagglutinin and rouleau formation. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 79-year-old female diagnosed as having multiple myeloma (MM) with monoclonal IgG-λ type showed rouleau formation in peripheral blood smear. The ABO and Rh blood type before the diagnosis of MM was A+, but the following ABO grouping was interpreted as AB+. The ABO genotype revealed the subtypes A102 and O101, which confirmed her ABO phenotype as A+. CONCLUSION This was a case of combined group I and III ABO discrepancies mimicking blood group AB.

Introduction: Monoclonal Gammopathy of Renal Significance (MGRS) is an immunoglobulin proliferative disorder that leads to the destruction of the renal glomerular basement membrane and progression to end-stage renal disease. The pathogenesis of MGRS is similar to that of multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic lymphoma but lacks criteria for either disease. This inability to characterize the d...

متن کاملمیلوم IgD
IgD myeloma is very rate. It differs from multiple myeloma of other classes in several aspects and its laboratory diagnosis may be difficult, as total plasma protein concentration is often normal, and a paraprotein peak may not be easily demonstrable by the conventional electrophoretic techniques. We report here two cases of IgD myeloma investigated in this laboratory. Immunochemical, biochemic...
متن کاملDiscrepancy in ABO Blood Grouping in a Blood Donor: A Case Report
Detection of ABO blood groups through agglutination is the basis of pre-transfusion testing. However, weak agglutination reactions may be obtained with reagent antibodies and are a result of weak expression of A and B antigens on red blood cell surface which may cause a discrepancy in blood group typing. Here, we report a donor which showed discrepancy between red blood cells (forward) and seru...
