[Neonatal hemolytic anemia after intra-amniotic injection of methylene blue].
The authors report two cases of neonatal hemolytic anemia without methemoglobinemia secondary to intraamniotic injection of 10 mg of methylene blue. Evolution was favourable without exchange transfusion. This emphasizes the importance of searching for a toxic origin in case of neonatal hemolytic anemia without apparent cause.
