The Bombay Blood Group is the rarest blood group first reported in Bombay, India. 55 year old female patient who is admitted in Zydus Hospital with planned spine surgery . For preoperative major profile blood sample was sent to our blood bank for grouping & other lab investigations. Both forward and reverse grouping were done by GAMMA Immucor Automation (microplate method) resulting discrepancy between forward and reverse grouping. Both are important for safe transfusion, if not followed may lead to people with Bombay blood group not being detected, categorized as O group and cause severe hymolytic reaction. So therefore reverse or serum grouping is necessary to detect this group. We present one rare case which was diagnosed in our hospital.
