Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

ABSTRACT Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) remains a significant concern in prenatal care primarily caused by maternal alloimmunization against fetal red blood cell antigens, most commonly the D antigen. Noninvasive fetal RHD genotyping, used as a screening tool, enables targeted antenatal prophylaxis and has been implemented in several

ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluates the procedural characteristics, complications, and outcomes of intrauterine transfusion (IUT) for fetal anemia caused by parvovirus B19 infection during the 2023–2024 epidemic in Northwestern Europe. Method This multicenter observational study included all fetuses undergoing IUT for proven parvovirus B19‐induced ...

Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia
ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)

Placental Dysfunction and Congenital Heart Disease: Investigating the Placenta‐Heart Axis
ABSTRACT Objective Concurrent development of the placenta and heart during early gestation suggests a shared biological basis for the co‐occurrence of abnormal placentation and congenital heart disease (CHD). This study investigated the association between placental vascular pathology and CHD type.

ABSTRACT Introduction Severe brain injury has been reported following fetoscopic laser ablation (FLA) for twin‐to‐twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), but imaging patterns and temporal evolution remain poorly defined. This study aimed to characterize the progression of severe brain injury after FLA. Methods We conducted a retrospective case series of TTTS
