    Author: van Gammeren AJ, Overbeeke MA, Idema RN, van Beek RH, Ten Kate-Booij MJ, Ermens AA.
    Journal: Transfus Med; 2008 Jun; 18(3):197-8. PubMed ID: 18598283.
    Abstract:
    Routine screening for maternal immunization in a 36-year-old woman revealed an alloimmunization against the high-incidence Vel antigen during a second pregnancy. Because of the development of immunoglobulin G-type anti-Vel, the infant developed haemolytic disease of the newborn, with severe jaundice and reticulocytosis. Phototherapy was needed to reduce hyperbilirubinaemia.
