The genomic dna sample was sent to grifols ih center for bi-directional sanger sequencing.Sequencing interrogated co gene exons 1 to 4.The obtained genotype is a mix of major allele co*b (86-87%) and minor allele co*a (13-14%).In a regular genotype co*a, co*b, both alleles are represented 50% each.Id core xt reported a genotype co*b, co*b but the low presence of co*a allele made id core xt failing in the detection of allele co*a and serology showing an ambiguous result.This false negative result obtained by id core xt is considered a discrepant result and then a malfunction.This sample corresponds to a multi-transfused patient with acute myeloblastic leukaemia (aml).An investigation is still running to determine if the clinical and/or transfusion history of the patient is the cause of the malfunction.
