Fetal hydrops and anemia as signs of Down syndrome
Before the 20th week of gestation, the most common cause of nonimmune hydrops fetalis is chromosomal abnormalities. Herein, we report a case of fetal hydrops, anemia, and intrauterine growth retardation that presented at 27 weeks of gestation with a ...

Objective. We present a case of fetal severe anemia associated with Jra alloimmunization, which was managed using Doppler measurement of the peak systolic velocity of the fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA-PSV) and intrauterine transfusion (IUT) of Jr(a+)

Doppler middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity measurement as diagnostic tool for fetal anemia after in-utero transfusions in red blood cell alloimmunisation [PDF]
Background/Aim. Doppler sonography of fetal middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) can be used to predict fetal anemia and the need for in utero intravascular transfusion (IUIT) in red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunisation pregnancies.

Fetal anemia and heart rate patterns [PDF]
A retrospective survey was performed of the clinical records and cardiotocograms (CTG) of fetuses born in 1978 and 1979 at Helsinki University Central Hospital with hemoglobin concentration less than 170 g/liter in peripheral blood or umbilical artery. Eighty-three fetuses (0.7%) had thus defined anemia.

Fetal hemoglobin in sickle cell anemia
AbstractFetal hemoglobin (HbF) is the major genetic modulator of the hematologic and clinical features of sickle cell disease, an effect mediated by its exclusion from the sickle hemoglobin polymer. Fetal hemoglobin genes are genetically regulated, and the level of HbF and its distribution among sickle erythrocytes is highly variable.

Noninvasive Diagnostics of Fetal Anemia
ABSTRACT Even though the use of anti-D immunoglobulin has dramatically decreased the incidence of hemolytic disease of fetus and newborn, it still remains a significant cause of fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. The main challenge facing fetal medicine specialists today is not the skill required for invasive therapy, but rather the ...
