Increased Prevalence of Alloimmunization in Sickle Cell Disease? Should We Restore Blood Donation in French Guiana?

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Patients with sickle cell disease often undergo frequent blood transfusions. This increases their exposure to red blood cell alloantigens of donor units, thus making it more likely that they produce alloantibodies.

Study of alloimmunization and autoimmunization in Iranian β-thalassemia major patients

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2016
Background: Thalassemia is one of the most common monogenic disorders characterized by reduced production of globin chains. Although regular red blood cell (RBC) transfusion support is the main treatment for these patients, it may be associated with ...

Red cell alloimmunization in multi-transfused, oncology patients: Risks and management

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine, 2019
Introduction: Repeated blood transfusion can result in the development of alloantibodies against one or more red cell antigens. Risk of alloimmunization is high in patients receiving multiple transfusions in hemoglobinopathies, hematologic malignancies ...

Frequency of Red Blood Cell Alloimmunization in Patients with Sickle Cell Disease in Palestine. [PDF]

Adv Hematol, 2018
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 ...
