title: A case of materno-foetal histocompatibility--implications for leucocyte transfusion treatment for recurrent aborters.
abstract: A cord blood sample obtained after a perfectly normal pregnancy was found to be HLA-A, B, C and DR compatible with maternal HLA antigens. This minority occurrence is discussed in relation to the possible use of tissue-typing to assess risk of spontaneous abortion.
