Abstract
Anti-B antibody causing severe hemolytic anemia and renal failure was found in the serum of a blood group B patient who had received a bilat eral lung transplant from a blood group O donor. Although the donor or igin of the antibody was not confirmed, it is likely that the anti-B a ntibody was produced by donor passenger B lymphocytes.
