Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The authors report successful in utero treatment by high doses of intravenous gamma globulins in a case of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. Early diagnosis allows an appropriate management: fetal blood sampling as early as 20 weeks of gestation; in case of fetal thrombocytopenia, treatment by intravenous gamma globulin (1.0 g/kg/b.w.) each week during 8 weeks or more; ultrasound screening of in utero hemorrhage, particularly intracranial hemorrhage; fetal blood sampling before delivery at term and in utero transfusion of platelet antigen negative in case of persistence of fetal thrombocytopenia. |
