- Defects in the lymphoid system can cause immune dysregulation, leading to conditions like Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and autoimmune disorders, complicating transfusion processes, especially in cases like autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA).
- A case study presented a 56-year-old man with CLL and myasthenia gravis who developed severe anemia, showing unique immunohaematological patterns that indicated a need to understand the overflow phenomenon for effective alloantibody detection.
- Recognizing the overflow phenomenon in AIHA is crucial, as it aids transfusion specialists in identifying underlying alloantibodies, allowing for safer transfusions of compatible blood products.
