[Serological Characteristics and Gene Sequences of Congenital Blood Group Chimera].

Objective: To identify the ABO positive and negative stereotypic inconsistencies in a dizygotic twin with positive stereotypic patterns and mixed agglutination, and explore the application of serological characteristics and gene sequence in congenital blood group chimeras.

Methods: ABO blood group identification, Rh and MN typing were performed using the microcolumn gel method and ABO genotyping was performed using the PCR-SSP method.

Results: In this patient, both anti-A and anti-B tubes had mixed hemagglutination of red blood cells, and the anti-ABO tube was AB type. The Rh typing of the patient was CcDEe. Mixed agglutination of red blood cells was observed in both anti-M and anti-N tubes in MN typing. The patient's father and mother was normal Type O and AB, respectively. There were three alleles in the ABO gene of the patient, O0101 came from his father, while A102 and B01 came from his mother.

Conclusion: The patient has two groups of red blood cells (type A and B). Because the patients is a dizygotic twin, these two groups of red blood cells can be chimeras formed by blood exchange between the twins. Through gene sequencing, it can be determined that the patient is a congenital A/B blood type chimera.
