Rh deficiency syndrome is a type of hemolytic anemia that involves erythrocytes whom membranes are deficient in Rh antigens. It is considered a rare condition. [1]
History
Vos originally described Rh-deficiency syndrome in 1961, when a sample of blood failed to respond with several Rh antisera. However, R. Ceppellini used the term "Rhnull" for the first time. So far, at least 43 people from 14 families have been reported in the literature as having the Rhnull phenotype.[2]
