A 46-year-old woman with chronic myelogenous leukemia received allogeneic bone marrow transplantation from an unrelated human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched (but mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) positive to graft-versus host disease (GvHD) donor. The blood type of the recipient was A type Rh (+) while the donor blood type was B type Rh (+). The patient received busulfan 8 mg/kg, cyclophosphamide 120 mg/kg, and total-body irradiation 10 Gy before bone marrow transplantation. Short-term administration of methotrexate and cyclosporin was given for prophylaxis of GvHD. The mononuclear cells harvested from the donor were concentrated by COBE Spectra before bone marrow transplantation. Although engraftment of transplanted bone marrow in the recipient was confirmed on day 11, the patient suffered from severe anemia on day 10. Since the direct Coombs' test to A type red blood cells was positive, and anti-A antibody titer increased 16-fold, we diagnosed her anemia as hemolytic anemia caused by ABO mismatched transplantation. In addition to hemolytic anemia, she had skin symptoms of acute GvHD grade II, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, and died of multiple organ failure on day 44. This experience indicated that some allogeneic transplant recipients are at risk of severe hemolytic anemia in the early stage after unrelated ABO mismatched donor and that it is necessary to establish proper treatment and prophylaxis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D001787 Blood Group Incompatibility An antigenic mismatch between donor and recipient blood. Antibodies present in the recipient's serum may be directed against antigens in the donor product. Such a mismatch may result in a transfusion reaction in which, for example, donor blood is hemolyzed. (From Saunders Dictionary & Encyclopedia of Laboratory Medicine and Technology, 1984).

D000017 ABO Blood-Group System The major human blood type system which depends on the presence or absence of two antigens A and B. Type O occurs when neither A nor B is present and AB when both are present. A and B are genetic factors that determine the presence of enzymes for the synthesis of certain glycoproteins mainly in the red cell membrane.

D015464 Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive Clonal hematopoetic disorder caused by an acquired genetic defect in PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS. It starts in MYELOID CELLS of the bone marrow, invades the blood and then other organs. The condition progresses from a stable, more indolent, chronic phase (LEUKEMIA, MYELOID, CHRONIC PHASE) lasting up to 7 years, to an advanced phase composed of an accelerated phase (LEUKEMIA, MYELOID, ACCELERATED PHASE) and BLAST CRISIS.
