Alloimmunization to erythrocyte antigens in patients receiving multiple blood transfusions: Clinico-immunohematological and demographic risk factors and impact of extended red cell phenotyping

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine, 2021
Background and Objectives: The risk of red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization is always a concern for multi-transfused patients. Various factors have been found to be associated with alloimmunization. Alloimmunization rates were reported from 4% to 50%, 1.

Alloimmunization to minor red cell antigen leading to massive hemolysis in newly diagnosed thalassemia intermedia

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine, 2021
Alloimmunization to red cell antigens is a taxing complication of thalassemia major and intermedia patients who receive routine blood transfusions. The data on alloimmunization in beta-thalassemia are sparse from developing countries.
