[Intrauterine fetal transfusion in twin pregnancy with Rh isoimmunization]. 1989

Iu Vasileva, and M E Poissonier

Two women with twin pregnancy and with Rhesus isoimmunization were described. The disease of these women was so grave that intrauterine transfusions were made in both fetuses (from all 86 pregnancies treated with transfusions). Twins of one of the women were born alive, but the other twins died in utero. Difficulties and problems of this rarely encountered combination of two independent one from the other pathologies are discussed.

D012203	Rh Isoimmunization	The process by which fetal Rh+ erythrocytes enter the circulation of an Rh- mother, causing her to produce IMMUNOGLOBULIN G antibodies, which can cross the placenta and destroy the erythrocytes of Rh+ fetuses. Rh isoimmunization can also be caused by BLOOD TRANSFUSION with mismatched blood.
