The aim of this study was to assess the value of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler time-averaged mean velocity (TAMV) for the prediction of fetal anaemia in at-risk cases without ultrasound evidence of hydrops. The study included 35 pregnant women with non-hydropic fetuses and with known red
The symptom complex--hypoproteinemia, edema and anemia--occurs in approximately 5 percent of CF-patients during the first 6 months of life. Since milk is the only nutritional source in this age group, a hypocaloric nutrition respectively marginaly low protein intake may contribute to these symptoms
Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare inherited bone marrow failure disorder linked predominantly to ribosomal protein gene mutations. Here the European DBA consortium reports novel mutations identified in the RPL15 gene in 6 unrelated individuals diagnosed with DBA. Although point mutations have
We describe a case of congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia (CDA) presenting at week 20 of pregnancy with hydrops fetalis and very severe anaemia. Fetal blood examination showed marked erythroblastosis with morphologic alterations while the basic haematological and biochemical tests were in the
A premature infant (33.-34. gestational week) delivered by caesarean section suffered from congenital hydrops and severe anaemia (7,2 g/dl) with pronounced marks of erythroblastosis; its placenta contained a haemangioma of 750 gs. A gigant haemangioma is extremely rare and can lead to a
OBJECTIVE
To determine the role of fetal multiples of the median of middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MoM MCA-PSV), in predicting the degree of fetal anemia for determination of the best timing for the second intrauterine intravascular transfusion (IUIVT) in hydropic fetuses with Rh
A 35-year-old woman presented at 27-week gestation with hypertension and pedal edema. Antenatal scan showed hydrops fetalis and growth restriction. Cordocentesis showed severe fetal anemia. This was treated with multiple in utero blood transfusions with no clinically significant improvement and
Fetal hydrops developed in the 8-day interval between two ultrasonographic examinations of a pregnant woman who had presented with a revealed placental abruption. Chronic ulcerative colitis had been treated with oral prednisone and sulfasalazine until the second month of pregnancy and then with
Hydrops fetalis is rarely caused by congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA). We report a patient with hydrops fetalis as a result of severe anemia. This patient needed intrauterine transfusions from 21 weeks of gestation until birth. The hematologic study showed an atypical CDA (hydrops
We operated on 14 singleton fetal sheep at 126 +/- 3 d gestation and produced nonimmune anemia in 12 of them to study the mechanisms responsible for hydrops. Two fetuses served as controls. Partial exchange transfusions were performed daily to lower the hematocrit while we measured arterial blood
A patient is described who presented with severe congenital anemia, hydrops fetalis, immune disorder, and absent thumbs. No toxic, infectious, or metabolic cause was found to explain these symptoms. Immunologic and cytogenetic studies excluded several syndromes that combine radial ray anomalies with
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess the prognosis of parvovirus B19 infection with severely anemic and/or hydropic fetuses according to initial ultrasound and biological criteria.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 20 cases of congenital parvovirus B19-proven infection (positive PCR)
Neonatal hemochromatosis is a rare inherited disorder of iron metabolism in which various tissues contain excessive amounts of iron. Only in a very few cases in which the disease is associated with fetal nonimmune hydrops is there the possibility for prenatal diagnosis. We present a case of fetal
BACKGROUND
Mesalazine and its prodrug sulfasalazine are both used for inflammatory bowel disease. Sulfasalazine has been associated with hematological side-effects such as aplastic and hemolytic anemia in patients, but also in fetuses after intrauterine exposure. To our knowledge, we describe the
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to assess the value of the middle cerebral artery time-averaged mean velocity for the detection of anemia as the cause of fetal hydrops.
METHODS
We examined 17 pregnant women with fetuses with hydrops (with ascites as the main component of hydrops) and who
