A new therapeutic antibody removal method using antigen-positive red cells. II. Application to a P-incompatible pregnant woman.

abstract：:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 D(-) liver transplant (LT) recipients transfused with D(+) RBCs perioperatively and screened for RBC antibodies between 2 and 6 months later. None developed anti-D detectable by the indirect antiglobulin test. Two patients produced weak anti-D that reacted only with papain-...
