ANTUNES, Marika Bini et al. Severe passenger lymphocyte syndrome associated to Rh antibodies after donor living renal transplantation. []. , 33, 2, pp.115-117. ISSN 0872-0169.  https://doi.org/10.32932/pjnh.2019.07.023.

The passenger lymphocyte syndrome may cause hemolytic anemia after bone marrow and solid organ transplantation when there is minor erythrocyte antigen incompatibility in the donor/recipient pair. Anemia is usually self-limiting, frequently related to ABO antibodies and rarely to Rh mismatches. We report a rare case of passenger B lymphocyte syndrome mediated by Rh antibodies occurring after a donor living renal transplantation and discuss its clinical severity at presentation, the therapeutic decisions and their outcome.
