title: [Hydrops fetalis of non-immunological origin. Study of 24 cases and review of the literature].
abstract: Twenty-four cases of Schriddes' disease of non-immunological origin were observed between 1973 and 1990 in the Gynecology-Obstetrics Service at Angers (France). These cases are analyzed and the results are compared with those published in the literature. This disorder must be diagnosed before birth. Three examinations are currently essential for foetal assessment: obstetrical ultrasound, ultrasonic cardiography and amniocentesis. As a result of improved antenatal diagnosis, the question of the indications for in-utero treatment and medical termination of pregnancy now arises. Despite progress in neonatal resuscitation, the prognosis generally remains very poor.
