A case of Tn polyagglutination discovered by an ABO blood group discrepancy.

This case of acquired Tn polyagglutination due to a novel mutation was first suspected from an ABO phenotyping discrepancy. It highlights the cross-reactivity of anti-A reagent with Tn antigen when tested on a common gel-based method. Furthermore, the case demonstrates that review of patient history and test information can clarify discrepancies and guide resolution.
