Our patient had a rare D-- phenotype and confirmed to have RHCE/RHD hybrid gene with replacement of 2-9 exons of RHCE by RHD sequences. Unfortunately, our patient developed anti-Rh17 and anti-e antibodies due to blood transfusion and suffered fetal demise in her very first pregnancy. The adverse outcomes could have been prevented by active prenatal management.
