Background: Anti-G antibodies are rarely found since anti-D, in combination with anti-C, are difficult to discriminate from anti-G antibodies in routine testing. Case Report: A 22-year-old, gravida-3, para-1, woman with blood group A Rh D neg ccddee and known antibody anti-Jk(b), gave birth to her second child. While anti-Jk(b) could not be detected at birth, a new anti-C was found. Antibody screening tests (IAT) were performed using gel cards and rare G positive rGr erythrocytes. Genotyping for RHD and RHCE was performed using PCR-SSP. Results: The child's blood group was A Rh D neg Ccddee. Genotyping revealed Cde/cde haplotypes. The erythrocytes of the new-born showed a positive direct antiglobulin test with IgG; anti-D and anti-C could be eluted. Erythrocytes with the rare phenotype rGr were reactive with the serum of the mother. Conclusion: The presence of anti-D and anti-C in the eluate from then new-born's Ccddee erythrocytes proved anti-G or anti-G in combination with anti-D. When anti-C and anti-D are seen during a pregnancy, possibly anti-G is present. This observation is of relevance since women with anti-G can still develop anti-D and require rhesus prophylaxis.
