    Abstract:
    136 intrauterine transfusions in 90 fetuses between the 25th and 34th gestational week with severe hemolytic disease because of Rh-incompatibility have been performed after a prenatal step by step diagnostic in the years 1967 till 1986. The reason of the immunization was mistransfusion or omitted immune prophylaxis in 25 cases. 25 from 67 live born children died. There were 23 still births. 34 from 43 fetuses without hydrops survived, but only 8 from 47 fetuses with hydrops. The survival rate over all was 46.7 per cent.
