Abstract | A 12-year-old boy developed persistent thrombocytopenia after undergoing bone marrow transplantation for acute myelogenous leukemia. High doses of intravenous immunoglobulins were used to treat overt hemorrhage and a sudden intravascular hemolysis occurred. The serologic findings point to an acute hemolysis secondary to the presence of isohemoagglutinins in the intravenous immunoglobulin preparations.
