Myocardial performance index in fetal anemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, 2014
AbstractObjectiveThe objective of the study was to examine the correlation between fetal myocardial performance index (MPI) and hemoglobin (Hb) levels.MethodsIt is a prospective study involving singleton pregnancies at risk of fetal anemia as a result of maternal anti‐D alloimmune disease. Right and left ventricle (LV) MPIs were evaluated by ultrasound

Managing the Unusual Causes of Fetal Anemia

Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 2019
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Rare causes of fetal anemia requiring intrauterine transfusion (IUT) are challenging for fetal medicine specialists. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The aim of this study was to describe the perinatal patterns and prognosis in a consecutive series of fetuses transfused for fetal anemia

Contribution of fetal brain MRI in management of severe fetal anemia

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2018
Intrauterine transfusion (IUT) has changed fetal anemia prognosis. However, long-term neurodevelopmental outcome is altered in 5% of children. Our objective was to study the contribution of fetal MRI to diagnosis brain lesions in case of fetal anemia.Retrospective monocentric descriptive study from 2005 to 2016, including all patients followed for ...

Sickle Cell Anemia and Fetal Hemoglobin

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1994
Fetal hemoglobin, the predominant hemoglobin of the fetus, is good for sickle cell anemia. This hemoglobin inhibits the polymerization of sickle hemoglobin. Clinical studies have shown that at any level of fetal hemoglobin, the more that is present, the better off is the patient.

Congenital Dyserythropoietic Anemia Type 1 With Fetal Onset of Severe Anemia

Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 2001
We report a patient with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type 1 with characteristic anomalies and two novel clinicopathologic presentations: intrauterine onset of severe anemia resulting in cardiac failure and relatively mild dyserythropoietic features on bone marrow aspiration in contrast to severity of anemia.

Cardiovascular Evaluation of Fetal Anemia due to Alloimmunization

Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 2008
<i>Objective:</i> To evaluate the cardiovascular impact of fetal anemia. <i>Methods:</i> We reviewed 53 echo-Doppler studies from 24 fetuses with anemia due to alloimmunization. <i>Results:</i> There was no difference between the severe and nonsevere anemia for heart rate, cardiothoracic ratio, and contractility ...

Fluctuation of fetal hemoglobin in sickle-cell anemia

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1976
A reduction of morbidity and mortality rates in homozygous sickle-cell patients was found in those with high fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels. This factor would lead one to believe that an adequate amount of this substance would be protective to a patient with this hemoglobinopathy.

Fetal anemia as a consequence of hemorrhage into an ovarian cyst

Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2001
AbstractFetal ovarian cysts are usually benign in nature and resolve spontaneously. Complications such as torsion and rupture have been described previously. A case of presumptive spontaneous hemorrhage into a fetal ovarian cyst is presented. Serial ultrasound and Doppler assessments revealed the development of fetal anemia, which was managed by ...

Diagnosis and treatment of fetal anemia due to isoimmunization

Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 1994
45 pregnant women affected by rhesus incompatibility were treated at the Department of Prenatal Diagnosis and Therapy, Vienna, between January 1992 and March 1993. 32 patients had a cordocentesis and on 21 fetuses, anemia requiring treatment was diagnosed. A total of 71 intravascular transfusions via the umbilical vein was given.
