HLA-alloimmunization in pregnancy.
The authors analyzed the correlations between the presence of anti-HLA antibodies and fetal neonatal problems. There are specific data in the literature on the protective effect of anti-HLA antibodies against abortion. Nevertheless our study shows a significant correlation between their presence and perinatal problems.
