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

Attitudes Toward Prenatal Interventions in the Fanconi Anemia Community

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In‐utero cell and gene therapies may offer prenatal treatment options for inherited diseases. Preclinical data suggests in‐utero (IU) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) could prevent Fanconi anemia (FA) related bone marrow failure without genotoxic conditioning or immune suppression.

Evaluating the Utility of RNAseq in Prenatal Diagnostics: Expression Profiles of Cultured Chorionic Villus and Amniotic Fluid Samples

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective While RNAseq has enhanced variant interpretation in postnatal cases, its potential in the prenatal setting remains underexplored. This study investigates the utility of RNAseq in prenatal diagnostics by analyzing the expression profiles of cultured chorionic villus samples (cCVS) and amniotic fluid (cAF) samples. Methods We performed

In Utero HSC Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease: A Potential Therapeutic Approach That Overcomes Complications of Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide but has limited treatment options, most of which carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment for SCD is allogeneic or gene‐modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation (Tx).
