Keywords:
Auto-immune Hemolytic Anemia, Maximum thermal reactivityAbstract
A six year male was diagnosed with Right sided Pneumonia with pleural effusion
and clinical presentation of autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The blood sample to
the blood center showed auto-agglutination. Blood grouping and cross-matching
followed, with an objective of transfusing the most compatible blood unit to this
patient, in a low resource Blood storage center setting.
