  • Title: [Erythrocyte substitution and isoagglutinin titer following ABO-incompatible bone marrow transplantation].
    Author: Henneberg-Quester KB, Luboldt W, Schaefer UW, Beelen DW, Quabeck K.
    Journal: Beitr Infusionsther; 1990; 26():200-4. PubMed ID: 1703830.
    Abstract:
    About 2 or 3 weeks after transplantation, even ABO-Incompatible bone marrow shows a successful graft. Haemopoiesis is not always free of problems. Suppression of erythropoiesis is caused by persistently incompatible agglutinins. Patient's well-being is limited by longer periods of low levels of haemoglobin concentration. Long-lasting need for transfusions is related to the well-known risk of infections. A procedure to eliminate the residual titers of alloantibodies should be discussed in time with the staff of the transfusion department.
