RESUMO
【Objective】 To analyze the serological characteristics of an anemia patient with cold autoantibodies and IgG anti S antibody. 【Methods】 Unexpected antibody screening was performed on screening cells, autologous cells and panel cells with patient serum in saline and anti human globulin card media at room temperature and 37 ℃, respectively. At the same time, the serum that destroying IgM antibodies and acid elution solution were respectively screened for unexpected antibodies in anti human globulin card media. The absorption-elution test was used to treat patients′ red blood cells and serum, and the unexpected antibody identification and cross matching were performed after excluding the interference of cold autoantibodies. 【Results】 Cold autoantibodies and IgG anti S antibody were found in the serum of this patient. 【Conclusion】 When a patient is found to have cold autoantibodies, it is necessary to screen the alloantibody, in order to avoid post transfusion immune reactions due to missed detection of alloantibody.
RESUMO
Anti-S antibody is rare and irregular antibody in MNS blood group system. One patient was found positive when doing antibody screening experiment before coronary artery bypass grafting. This is the first case of serum IgG-anti-S in our laboratory. S-antibody screening test and irregular antibody identification are important before blood transfusion, which can reduce the transfusion reaction.
RESUMO
A full term male infant was admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit due to jaundice and mild hemolytic anemia within the first 24 hours of his life. The total serum bilirubin level was 11.2 mg/dL at 24 hours of age. The patient was RhD positive and blood group A, and his mother was RhD positive and blood group B. The direct and indirect antiglobulin tests of the infant were all positive. On antibody screening and identification tests, anti-S antibodies were identified from both the infant and mother. The RBC phenotyping for S antigen revealed positive for infant and negative for mother. This report documents the first case of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn due to the anti-S antibody in Korea.
