RESUMEN
Objective Study on fetomaternal immuno state and RHD type of a pregnant woman of weak D phenotype.MethodsThrough polymerase chain reaction (PCR)、direct genomic DNA sequencing and flow cytometry.ResultsIn both sequence specific promer (SSP) PCR and the sequencing PCR tests, the sample was detected negative in exons 3 6 of the RHD gene, whereas all other exons (exons 1 2,7 10) were tested positive. And the sequence of detected exons (exons 1 2,7 10) are the same with normal RHD in GenBank (accession no. AJ299020 1 and AJ299026 9). Serologically and genetically, the sample can be designated as D category VI type Ⅲ. Through a duce tube PCR method, the RhD zygosity of this individual was typed CD VI e/cde。In flow cytometry, a few fetal erythrocytes were detected in peripheral blood of the mother. However there were no anti D detected in sera and hemolytic disease of the newborn(HDN) observed at all.ConclusionSevere cases of HDN have occurred in D positive babies born to partial D mother with anti D, although HDN don't take place in this case. We may still consider D VI phenotype individuals as D positive donors and D negative receiptions in our transfusion practice and in clinical anti D allo immune prophylaxis and monitoring.
