Abstract
Unlabelled:
Severe fetomaternal transfusions are seldom, but may lead to neonatal morbidity or death.
Case Report:
We report a case of lethal fetomaternal transfusion in which a failure to induce labour, at term, can be suspected.
Comments:
We emphasize the need of a close monitoring of the fetal well-being in cases of failed induced labour at term.
