The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and the types of adverse transfusion reactions in these patients.
Materials And Methods: Adverse transfusion reaction reported in transfused patients with aplastic anaemia or myelodysplastic syndromes from all the hospitals in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France were extracted from the national haemovigilance database system and analysed.
