Sumario:Hematologists often encounter transfusion problems, one of which is crossmatch incompatibility. In many countries, transfusion medicine is not a recognized specialty, there are no reference immunohematology laboratories, and most blood banks can only perform “type and screen” and crossmatch analyses.
