Frequency of human platelet antigens (<scp>HPA</scp>) in the Greek population as deduced from the first registry of <scp>HPA</scp>‐typed blood donors
We report antigen and allele frequencies for a large array of clinically significant HPA for the first time in the Greek population. Frequencies are consistent with other European populations. This registry of HPA-typed platelet donors, available to donate on demand, is an important asset for the treatment of FNAIT cases in Greece.
