Abstract
The HPA-1bb and -5bb genotypes are more frequent in the Egyptian Arabic population studied compared to Caucasian populations. FNAIT due to anti-HPA-1a and -5b antibodies must be suspected in cases of neonatal thrombocytopenia. Further large prospective studies are needed to increase the knowledge of clinical complications related to HPA alloantibodies in populations with different genetic backgrounds.
