  • Title: Isoimmunization in pregnancy to Gerbich antigen.
    Author: Sacks DA, Johnson CS, Platt LD.
    Journal: Am J Perinatol; 1985 Jul; 2(3):208-10. PubMed ID: 4015769.
    Abstract:
    A case of hemolytic disease of the newborn due to Gerbich, a public antigen, is presented. The antibody which was IgG1 reacted in vitro with mononuclear phagocytes. Serial sonographic and amniotic fluid examinations were followed and a mildly jaundiced neonate was delivered. Further investigation may establish a relationship between severity of disease and IgG subclasses, a mononuclear phagocyte assay, and sonographic measurements. Sources of compatible blood for possible maternal, fetal, or neonatal transfusion include blood bank rare donor files, relatives, and autologous donation.
