Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia complicated by maternal autoimmune thrombocytopenia.
Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia should be suspected in any thrombocytopenic infant born to a healthy non-thrombocytopenic mother. Nevertheless, the condition occurs in only 1 or 2/10 000 births.' More often transient neonatal immune thrombocytopenia results from maternal idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. We report the coexistence of alloimmunisation and autoimmunisation against platelet...
متن کاملMaternal autoimmune thrombocytopenia and the newborn.
That a humoral factor was the causative agent in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura was suggested nearly 30 years ago after the observation that mothers with the disease often give birth to children who develop transient thrombocytopenia.1 Maternal platelet autoantibodies were presumed to pass into the fetal circulation. With present techniques2 3 platelet autoantibodies are detectable in most...
متن کاملIVIG-Associated Maternal Pancytopenia during Treatment for Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia
Background Treatment for neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) primarily involves maternal administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy and prednisone according to protocols based on risk stratification. While IVIG is generally well tolerated, hematologic side effects are a potential complication. Case We present the successful management of a rare complication of materna...
متن کاملNeonatal Thrombocytopenia as a Consequence of Maternal Preeclampsia
Introduction Preeclampsia (preE) is pregnancy-induced hypertension affecting a significant proportion of pregnant women worldwide and can cause detrimental effects in the mother and newborn. Some of the effects in the newborn include neonatal thrombocytopenia. Pertaining specifically to neonatal thrombocytopenia, several questions remain unanswered. Discussion According to the current literatur...
متن کاملMaternal platelet antibody levels in neonatal isoimmune thrombocytopenia.
A case of neonatal isoimmune thrombocytopenia (NIT) is described in which maternal platelet antibody levels decreased during the course of pregnancy. It is suggested that if this disorder is clinically suspected, maternal serum should be assessed for anti-platelet specificity using immunoblot analysis.
