Presence of <i>RHD</i> in serologically D–, C/E+ individuals: a European multicenter study

Abstract

The relative occurrence of RHD among serologically D- samples, positive for C and/or E, differed significantly in the investigated central European regions. Considering the growing use of molecular typing techniques, correct identification of blood group alleles with scarce or missing antigen expression is of utmost clinical importance and requires reliable population-based frequency data.
