Conservative management of a severely alloimmunized pregnancy: case report.
A pregnancy complicated by severe alloimmunization because of anti-E antibodies was evaluated with fetal movement counts, nonstress tests, and serial ultrasonography-amniocentesis. The successful outcome of this case suggests that such treatment may be an acceptable alternative to intrauterine transfusions for very select cases of severe alloimmunization.
