Frequency of Red Blood Cell Alloimmunization in Patients with Sickle Cell Disease in Palestine
Background. Transfusion of red blood cells (RBC) is an essential therapeutic tool in sickle cell disease (SCD). Repeated RBC transfusions can cause alloimmunization which causes difficulty in cross-matching and finding compatible blood for transfusions ...

Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia
Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia—caused by movement of maternal alloantibodies directed against fetal platelet antigens across the placenta—is the most common cause of severe neonatal thrombocytopenia.1 These alloantibodies cause thrombocytopenia, which may result in intracranial haemorrhage.2 3 Most cases arise unexpectedly, and prompt diagnosis ...
