A case of mild HDFN caused by anti-C, anti-D, and anti-G: Diagnostic strategy and clinical significance of distinguishing anti-G from anti-D and anti-C.

Anti-G is commonly present with anti-D and anti-C and can confuse serological investigations. The differentiation of anti-G from anti-D and anti-C is particularly essential for the accurate diagnosis of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and appropriate administration of anti-D immunoglobulin prophylaxis in Rhesus (Rh) negative women. We reported a rare case of anti-G together with anti-D and anti-C in a pregnant woman and her female neonate. The titers of IgG anti-D, anti-C, and anti-G in the woman were 256, 128, and 32, respectively. While the titers of IgG anti-D, anti-C, and anti-G in the neonate were 16, 8, and 4, respectively. The neonate experienced mild HDFN and only received phototherapy during hospitalization. This report discusses the diagnostic strategy and clinical significance of differentiating anti-G from anti-D and anti-C.
