Abstract
Hydrops fetalis is characterized by diffuse subcutaneous edema and fluid collections in some or all serous cavities. Historically, Rhesus isoimmunization was the leading cause of hydrops in the newborn. With the institution of passive maternal immunization and the development of intrauterine fetal transfusions over the last few decades, non-immune hydrops (NIHF) has become the most common type. Incidence of NIHF is variable, according to different authors, between 1:1,400 and 1:3,500.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
