[Platelet transfusion from HPA typed donors in alloimmune thrombocytopenia of newborns and fetuses].

The registry of donors typed for HPA-1 and HPA-3 antigens is presented. Three cases of fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (F/NAIT) transfused with typed platelets either from mother or from registered donors are discussed. All children were transfused just after delivery, one in addition in utero: they survived not having any haemorrhagic complications in central nervous system inspite of such complications in previous born siblings. In the paper the general rules of platelet transfusions in F/NAIT are discussed.

The effectiveness of intrauterine transfusions.

The results of treatment with intrauterine transfusion are presented. The analysis comprised 48 successful transfusions into 29 foetuses. The reference group consisted of 11 transfusions which proved nonfeasible or ineffective and 54 untreated cases. Following blood treatment, the newborn mortality rate dropped more than threefold. Long-term follow-up of 21 children generally showed their good physical and mental development. We also present 4 cases of supsequent pregnancies after intrauterine blood treatment in a preceding pregnancy, showing that it is possible to save the next baby of the same mother.
