The most dreaded late complication of hemorrhagic disease of the newborn (erythroblastosis fetalis) is kernicterus.

Controversial Topics in Kernicterus

Clinics in Perinatology, 1988
The physiology of the blood-brain barrier and its disruption by a variety of pathophysiologic processes in the development of experimental and clinical kernicterus are reviewed. The use of currently available methods for measuring free and bound bilirubin in developing strategies for the prevention of kernicterus and more subtle sequelae of ...

Kernicterus in term infants

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1985
ABSTRACTKernicterus is a frequent occurrence in Chinese term infants. In a previous study, the mean level of serum bilirubin of 152 kernicteric infants was 35.4 mg/dl (605.3 μmol/l) and the range was 22.3‐50 mg/dl. More recently, three further term infants developed kernicterus and one exhibited bilirubin level of only 23.3 mg/dl.

Kernicterus in an Adult Dog

Veterinary Pathology, 2007
A 7-year-old, spayed female, Wheaton terrier dog was icteric, lethargic, and anorexic with increased activity of hepatocellular and cholestatic liver enzymes and an extreme hyperbilirubinemia level of 609 μmol/L (reference interval: 1.0–4.0 μmol/L). Necropsy findings included profound icterus and red and yellow mottling of the liver.
