Intra-uterine exchange transfusion was performed on a patient in the 30th week of gestational age for Morbus haemolyticus fetalis. The indication for intra-uterine intervention resulted from spectrophotometric investigation of amniotic fluid which had revealed Zone III according to Liley as well as incipient hydropic development and development of ascites. The pregnancy had to be terminated for pathological CTG, four days after therapy. Postnatal neonatological intensive therapy included two exchange transfusions, before the child was dismissed in clinically intact condition.
