Perinatal medicine: a look to the future.
There have been many advances in perinatal medicine, but few as impressive as those in Rh-disease. Over several decades, we have seen a disease, which once caused the perinatal death of half of all Rh-immunized pregnancies, almost disappear. The success of this medical campaign should serve as a model for the conquering of other perinatal problems.
