Hi Patient blood group is A Rh D positive and antibody screen negative. Set up 4 units of A Pos unit and found to be incompatible. Then we set up 3 A Rh D negative units and found to be incompatible. Therefore panel was set up and found to negative in all cell line. We set-up 4 unit O Rh D negative and found to be COMPATIBLE. However DAT is positive in IgG 2+. But why was cross match was incompatible in A red cell but COMPATIBLE with O red cell.

Hi Malcolm We have a case where 32 year old pregnant lady Oneg rr and her partner is R2r. Her antibody screen was negative at 12 weeks, she has been given prophylactic anti-D at 19 weeks, Now her antibody screen is Positive and look like she developed Anti-D(proph D) and Unexplained anti-C. As far as we know this is her first pregnancy and no previous miscarriage or no transfusion history. How did she develop anti- C?Are Anti-D injection pure anti-D or they can contain mixture of Rh antibody? Do you think anti-C could have come from Prophylactic anti-D injection.
