Rhesus isoimmunization in twin gestation.
The incidence of Rh isoimmunized twin gestation is extremely low. There are several perinatal risks inherent to twinning. Rhesus isoimmunization further increases hazards of such a compromised gestation. This paper reports three cases of rhesus isoimmunization in twin gestation, discusses the selective problems of such pregnancies, and reviews the pertinent literature.
