Bombay and Discrepancies Flashcards
causes of weak/missing ABO abs
leukemia w/ hypogammaglobulinemia lymphoma w/ hypogammaglobulinemia patients w/ immunosuppresive drugs congenital agammaglobulinemia bone marriw transplant chimerism
categories if ABO discrepancies
weak/missing ABO Abs
weak/missing ABO Ags
plasma/protein abnormalities
miscellaneous prob
leading cause if weak/missing ABO Abs
chimerism (ata)
presence of 2 cell population in an indiv
chimerism
causes of weak/missing ABO Ags
excess BGSSs Hodgkin's disease leukemia acquired B phenomenon Abs to low incidence in antiA and antiB presence of A/B subgroups
causes of plasma/protein abnormalities
Wharton jelly plasma expander ^ fibrinogen ^ globulin plasma cell dysplasia advanced Hodgkin lymphoma
discrepancy in weak/missing ABO Ags
forward typing
discrepancy in weak/missing ABO Abs
backward typing
causes of excess BGSSs
pseudomucinous ovarian cyst
neutralized antiA antiB antisera
possible causes of acquired B phenomenon
carcinoma of the rectum and colon
other disorders of lower GIT
intestinal obstruction
mechanism of acquired B phen by carcinomas
increased int. wall permeability > allow passage of bacterial polysacc > grpA absorbs grpB
significant bacteria in acquired B phenomenon
E. coli serotype o86
causes of miscellaneous problem
cold reactive something
unexp. ABO isoagglu
unexp. ABO alloanti
