title: [HLA antigen typing in paternity disputes. Analysis of results].
abstract: Typing of 38-43 HLA antigens ruled out paternity in 33.75% of 726 men suspected, during 198 revisions in 71.72%. In 63.57% the man was ruled out concurrently in loci HLA-A and B incl. in 79.33% where the man and child had all HLA-A, B antigens different. Locus HLA-A alone was ruled out in 8.01%, locus HLA-B in 28.17%; in a single case the man was ruled out in locus HLA-C only. By family investigations the man was ruled out in three of 11 cases. In two cases of paternity of twins the man was ruled out from paternity only of one child. In one case superfecundation was involved, confirmed in systems Duffy, Inv, Hp, AP, in the second case the man was ruled out from paternity of the second child in the Hp system. Male carriers of antigens of haplotypes frequent in the population were not ruled out from paternity in high percentages: with HLA antigens A1, B8 in 37.19%, A2, B7 in 19.54%, A2, B12 in 24.72%, A3, B7 in 37.14%.
