LW-negative (LW4) red blood cells and anti-LW antibody were discovered in the blood of a 50-year-old white male with Hodgkin's disease and blood type O. Compatible red blood cells for transfusion could not be obtained because available LW-negative cells were either type A, LW4, or type O, LW3. Following cytotoxic therapy for his basic disease, the anti-LW disappeared and his red blood cells developed normal reactions with anti-LW sera.
在一名患有霍奇金病且血型为O型的50岁白人男性血液中发现了LW阴性(LW4)红细胞和抗LW抗体。由于可用的LW阴性细胞要么是A型(LW4),要么是O型(LW3),所以无法获得用于输血的相容红细胞。在对其基础疾病进行细胞毒性治疗后,抗LW消失,其红细胞与抗LW血清产生正常反应。
