  • Title: Fetal anemia as a response to prophylactic platelet transfusion in the management of alloimmune thrombocytopenia.
    Author: Yeast JD, Plapp F.
    Journal: Am J Obstet Gynecol; 2003 Sep; 189(3):874-6. PubMed ID: 14526332.
    Abstract:
    The antenatal management of alloimmune thrombocytopenia (ATP) frequently requires fetal blood sampling and prophylactic platelet transfusion. A recent case of ATP complicated by associated red blood cell alloimmunization demonstrated severe hemolysis apparently as a result of ABO incompatibility from transfused platelets.
