title: [Hydrops fetalis caused by maternal Parvovirus B19 infection].
abstract: Maternal infection with human Parvovirus B19 during pregnancy is one of the rare reasons, which can lead to a not immunologically conditioned hydrops fetalis. We report here a case of intrauterine Parvovirus infection associated with hydrops fetalis, diagnosed by intrauterine sonography in the 29 week of gestation, one week after the outbreak of Erythema. The B19 infection of the low birth weight baby, delivered in the 30 week of gestation, was diagnosed serologically with specific IgM and IgG against B19 by ELISA. No malformation could be detected in the liveborn infant, who died on the third day of life.
