Abstract
DURING the investigation of a hæmolytic transfusion reaction, it was observed that the patient's serum contained an isoantibody the reactions of which did not correspond with those of known blood group systems. The patient was a hæmophilic who had received previous transfusions. His serum contained two immune antibodies, namely, anti-Rh and a second antibody which reacted with a large proportion of group O Rh-negative bloods; this second antibody could be detected with certainty only by the indirect Coombs test.
