Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The reason how a person could develop antibodies against Rh-positive RBCs.
Introduction:
The Rh blood grouping system classifies individuals based on the presence of antigens, called Rh antigens, on the surface of RBCs. These Rh antigens are completely independent of the presence of the ABO antigens. The Rh antigen is so named based on the rhesus monkey, where the antigens were first observed. In humans, several Rh antigens exist, but only a few (for example, the C, D, and E antigens) are important, and the D antigen is clinically important since it is the most reactive.
