Immunoglobulins in hydrops fetalis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1972Abstract Immunoglobulin levels in 8 hydropic fetuses were studied. Six examples were paired with sera from the mother. The remaining 2 were from fetuses only. Specimens from 37 normal mother-neonate pairs were analyzed as a control group. The maternal immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels of hydropic fetuses were within the normal range.

Nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) historically has been considered a lethal fetal condition. Understanding NIHF to be a symptom or an end-stage status of a variety of fetal conditions, along with improved fetal diagnostics and interventions, has changed the landscape for at least some fetuses. Understanding the pathophysiologic mechanisms has led to the

Nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) is a term that defines an edematous fetus that does not have erythroblastosis fetalis from isoimmunization. All of the other reasons that a fetus develops NIHF are included in this category. The causes of NIHF range from diseases to structural anomalies to genetic abnormalities.

Hydrops Fetalis: Recent Advances
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1997Hydrops fetalis is a morbid condition caused by a wide variety of fetal, placental, and maternal diseases. Mortality is high and depends on the gestational age at the time of occurrence and underlying etiology. Although the condition was described more than 300 years ago, recent advances in obstetric ultrasound, prenatal diagnostics have made it ...

Hydrops fetalis: Role of the geneticist
Seminars in Perinatology, 1995The causes of hydrops fetalis are myriad. As a result of the advent of routine Rh screening, most cases are not currently related to Rh incompatibility. Genetic, metabolic, chromosomal, and syndromic causes are among the most frequently identified causes of nonimmune hydrops. The importance of determining the underlying cause of hydrops becomes evident

Hydrops fetalis and pulmonary sequestration
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996The development of fetal hydrops in conjunction with intrathoracic pathology has been described, but rarely in association with pulmonary sequestration. The current report presents three cases of antenatally identified nonimmune hydrops fetalis, seen in association with pulmonary sequestrations.

Hydrops fetalis in South Korea
Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 1981Excluding those with congenital syphilis all infants born in a hospital in South Korea with hydrops fetalis during a 47 month period were studied. In six out of a total of 17 cases no obvious abnormality was found. Abnormalities in the other cases included leukaemia, pulmonary cysts, ovarian cyst, haemangioma, peritonitis, limb contractures, left ...

Hydrops Fetalis and Congenital Syphilis
Pediatrics, 1972Hydrops fetalis is associated most commonly with erythroblastosis fetalis due to fetal-maternal incompatibility of the red cell Rh antigens. Many nonimmunologic disorders, including infections, homozygous alpha thalassemia, maternal diabetes mellitus, fetal malformations, the twin transfusion syndrome, and congenital nephrosis, may cause a similar ...

Hydrops Fetalis with Alpha Thalassemia
New England Journal of Medicine, 1967HYDROPS fetalis associated with hemoglobin Barts is believed to represent the homozygous state of α thalassemia. Ten cases occurring in Chinese families in Indonesia, Malaya and Hong Kong, 1 in a Greek Cypriot family and 1 in a Filipino family, have been described.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Recently, several more cases have been seen among Chinese in Hong Kong.8 We

Infectious causes of hydrops fetalis
Seminars in Perinatology, 1995A variety of infectious agents have been associated with nonimmune hydrops fetalis, most notably parvovirus B19, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, Toxoplasma gondii, and Treponema pallidum. These agents produce hydrops through effects on fetal bone marrow, myocardium, or vascular endothelium.
