[Prediction of the severity of fetal erythroblastosis using the erythrocyte phagocytosis test and evaluating anti-Rh antibody titers and their levels by autoanalysis].

Erythrophagocytosis++ test was performed in 45 pregnant Rh-negative women together with routine anti-Rh antibodies assay with indirect antiglobulin test and their concentration determined in an autoanalyser. It was found that the degree of ++phagocytosis of the standard erythrocytes immunized with maternal anti-Rh antibodies by the monocytes from healthy subjects is an important predictive factor enabling to foresee a severity of hemolytic disease in newborn babies. ++Phagocytosis over 50% predicts a severe course of the disease whereas under 20%--a mild form of the serologic conflict.

[Rhesus immunization in a rhesus-positive pregnant woman: fetal erythroblastosis caused by the rhesus antibody anti-C].

A rhesus-D-positive woman aged 32 years with two previous pregnancies was delivered of an infant with erythroblastosis foetalis caused by the rhesus antibody anti-c produced by alloimmunization during pregnancy. Screening for antibodies in the 12th week of pregnancy yielded negative results. No screening was undertaken in the 35th week of pregnancy. The infant was born with severe anaemia. Following delivery, the anti-c alloimmunization was diagnosed and three exchange transfusions were administered. On the fourth day of life, the infant developed the inspissated bile syndrome. No cerebral disorders were demonstrated. Antibody screening of rhesus-positive women has now been introduced at the 35th week of pregnancy to avoid similar cases.
