The cryoprecipitate is an essential blood product as they are rich in factor VIII, fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, factor XIII, and fibronectin, and their volume is too small. They play a significant role in the management of massive transfusion nowadays. Usually, they are used without ABO group consideration. We here report a case in which immunohematological problems arose due to out-of-group transfusion of cryoprecipitate. We suggest that the possibility of incompatibility subsequently is to be kept in mind during transfusion of large quantity cryoprecipitate, and ABO group compatible may be preferred.
