الوصف: Para-Bombay blood phenotype is a rare blood group with limited cases reported worldwide. This blood group is characterized by the absence of ABH antigen on red blood cells but presence of ABH secretor substances in the body secretion. This rare phenotype is usually misinterpreted as O and may endanger the patient if urgent blood transfusion is required. A mother who was labelled as group O Rh D positive during antenatal follow-up was found to have ABO discrepancy during delivery. The newborn was admitted for extremely premature delivery at 25 weeks. As the baby required transfusion, problem arose during cross matching with the mother’s sample. It was found that the mother was group O Rh D positive in forward grouping. However, the reverse grouping showed the presence of reaction (2+) in O cells. The baby was grouped as O Rh D positive. As transfusion was urgently needed due to baby’s unstable condition, group O Rh D positive packed cell was found compatible with baby’s serum, subsequently transfused. Bombay blood donor was contacted, and the donated blood was sent to the hospital for further management. Further investigations were performed, indicating that the mother is para-Bombay A. Due to recent transfusion to baby, we suggested to repeat baby’s blood group after the baby is one year old. Para-Bombay was usually mislabelled as O if the sample was not tested with O cell in reverse grouping. Additional tests may be needed during antenatal follow-up to prevent complications during delivery, which requires emergency blood transfusion.
