Rhesus (Rh) mediated hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTR) are usually immunoglobulin G mediated and delayed onset. Rh antibodies being the cause of acute HTR (AHTR) and intravascular hemolysis are still under debate. We report here a case of a 53-year-old male who developed AHTR due to "anti-c" antibodies within 3 h of blood transfusion, precipitating fatal acute liver failure in a patient with hepatitis C related chronic liver disease. This case emphasizes the need of inclusion of antibody screening in routine pretransfusion testing as well as a critical role of transfusion medicine specialists for early diagnosis and minimizing transfusion-related morbidity and mortality.
恒河猴(Rh)介导的溶血性输血反应(HTR)通常由免疫球蛋白G介导且起病延迟。Rh抗体作为急性HTR(AHTR)和血管内溶血的病因仍存在争议。我们在此报告一例53岁男性病例,该患者在输血后3小时内因“抗 - c”抗体发生AHTR,导致丙型肝炎相关慢性肝病患者发生致命的急性肝衰竭。该病例强调了在常规输血前检测中进行抗体筛查的必要性,以及输血医学专家在早期诊断和降低输血相关发病率和死亡率方面的关键作用。
