  • Title: Successful transfusion results using Rg(a+) blood in four patients with anti-Rga.
    Author: Strohm PL, Molthan L.
    Journal: Vox Sang; 1983; 45(1):48-52. PubMed ID: 6880144.
    Abstract:
    4 patients with anti-Rga successfully transfused in 1979 and 1980 with Rg(a+) donor units are herein reported since the literature lacks information on transfusion results in patients with this alloantibody. The transfusions of both Rg(a+) whole blood and packed red blood cell units caused no discernible immediate or delayed transfusion reactions. Clinically, predicted hematocrit increases were attained and sustained and the laboratory findings showed no evidences of shortened survivals of donors' red blood cells.
