Heterozygous Beta‐Thalassaemia in Pregnancy: Two Rare Causes of Severe Fetal Anemia Requiring Intrauterine Blood Transfusions

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In this article, we present two cases of severe fetal hemolytic anemia based on a beta‐thalassaemia trait inherited from a single parent. Results These cases, presented at 20 and 28 weeks' gestation, necessitated intra‐uterine blood transfusions.

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
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

Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn: Fetal RHD Genotyping, Targeted Prophylaxis, and Prenatal Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
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

The Diagnosis and Prenatal Management of Non‐RHD Alloimmunizations

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization remains a relevant cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). Although RhD immunization has significantly decreased since the implementation of systematic prophylaxis, it is still the main cause of alloimmunization in pregnancy.

Fetuses exposed to an episode of threatened preterm labor delivered at or near term show signs of cardiac remodeling

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether fetuses exposed to threatened preterm labor (PTL) without intra‐amniotic infection or inflammation (IAI), who were born ≥ 34 weeks' gestation, show signs of cardiac remodeling and dysfunction at admission and 4 weeks after the episode of threatened PTL.
