Pregnancy and warm autoantibodies: a case report
American Journal of Perinatology
|January 1, 1996
Abstract:
The presence of the maternal warm antibody in pregnancy should not be ignored. As there is risk of both maternal and fetal anemia, both patients need to be followed for the development of such. Serial complete blood counts in the mother and treatment if significant fetal anemia develops should be considered. Serial amniocentesis and nonstress testing should be part of any management plan in the presence of a maternal warm antibody.
