  • Title: Recurrence rate of ABO hemolytic disease of the newborn.
    Author: Katz MA, Kanto WP, Korotkin JH.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1982 May; 59(5):611-4. PubMed ID: 7070734.
    Abstract:
    ABO hemolytic disease of the newborn is a common and potentially severe disease. It can cause hyperbilirubinemia and anemia in the infant. A review of 230 primigravid mothers of affected offspring is presented. Evaluation of their subsequent pregnancies showed a recurrence rate of 88% in those infants at risk for the disease (of same blood type as their index sibling), with 62% of the affected infants requiring therapy. Guidelines for antenatal counseling are presented.
