title: Graft failure following neutrophil-specific alloantigen mismatched allogeneic BMT.
abstract: We report a case of unexplained graft failure in a 33-year-old man who received an allogeneic bone marrow graft that contained a donor-recipient mismatch involving the highly immunogenic NA1 neutrophil-specific alloantigen system. Laboratory and clinical data suggest that an alloimmune process related to the neutrophil alloantigen mismatch played a role in the development of the graft failure.
