Abstract | OBJECTIVE: CASE SUMMARY: DISCUSSION: Our case was similar to previously published cases, except that our patient died and his G6PD screen was negative. Although it was negative, it is likely that this was a false negative result because this blood was drawn shortly after PRBC transfusions and during active hemolysis. Both these are likely to cause false-negative results. CONCLUSIONS:
