Core Tip |
We present herein, two rare cases of non-immune hydrops fetalis with severe fetal anemia. Despite the similar onset, the etiology was infectious in the first case and autoimmune in the last one. In particular, we want to emphasize that even if the infectious examinations are not conclusive, but the pregnancy history is strongly suggestive of infection, the infectious etiology must not be excluded. Secondly, transplacental passage of maternal autoantibodies can cause hydrops fetalis and severe anemia. In any case, obstetric management must always be aimed at fetal support up to an optimal timing for delivery by evaluating risks and benefits. |
