The effectiveness of a white-cell reduction filter to deplete contaminated leucocytes in preventing the harmful effects of transfusion is evident. However, several complications associated with a white-cell reduction filter have been identified. We report the first case of anaphylactoid reactions caused by a white-cell reduction filter with a positively charged surface.

D016913 Blood Component Transfusion The transfer of blood components such as erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets, and plasma from a donor to a recipient or back to the donor. This process differs from the procedures undertaken in PLASMAPHERESIS and types of CYTAPHERESIS; (PLATELETPHERESIS and LEUKAPHERESIS) where, following the removal of plasma or the specific cell components, the remainder is transfused back to the donor.
