Anti-Ata in a renal transplant candidate: A case report
Immunohematology2020-01-01
A patient with end-stage renal disease on chronic dialysis was admitted to the hospital for renal transplantation evaluation. Blood type and antibody detection tests were performed. The antibody detection test results were positive. Initial antibody identification studies indicated the presence of a panagglutinin. The patient s autocontrol was negative. The antibody was subsequently iden-Tified by a reference laboratory as anti-Ata (Augustine), which is an extremely rare antibody due to the high prevalence of Ata in the general population. A monocyte monolayer assay (MMA) was performed to assess the clinical significance of the antibody in the event that blood was needed for transfusion, and At(a-) RBCs were not available.
A suspected delayed hemolytic transfusion reaction mediated by anti-Joa
Immunohematology2017-01-01
A 32-year-old African-American woman with a history of sickle cell disease presented for surgical evaluation of left total hip arthroplasty due to avascular necrosis of the femoral head. In anticipation of a complex orthopedic procedure, pre-surgical blood work was ordered. The patient's Fenwal blood sample typed as group O, D+. Although the patient had a history of anti-Fya, the antibody identification was inconclusive, so the workup was sent to a reference laboratory. The patient was last transfused with red blood cells (RBCs) 2 years earlier, but had no history of transfusion reactions. Due to surgery, the patient's hemoglobin (Hb) decreased from 10.2 g/dL (preoperative) to 8.6 g/dL (postoperative).
