Resumo
We report a case of spontaneous reversal in utero of hydrops fetalis caused by parvovirus B19 maternal-fetal infection. The route leading to fetal hydrops is not fully understood. Severe anemia with hypoxemia and viral fetal myocarditis have been incriminated. Then the main issue is fetal death or spontaneous abortion. Cases of spontaneous reversal of hydrops fetalis are unusual. Fetal regenerative anemia is a good prognostic factor and emphasizes the place of conservative management.
