Compared to anti-D alloimmunization, anti-E alloimmunization is a less common cause of hemolytic diseases of the newborn. Being a less potent immunogen, clinical manifestations of anti-E alloimmunization are more variable and usually of less severity. However, the clinical obstetric management of these cases of anti-E alloimmunization is just as challenging. We report here the management of a patient with anti-E alloimmunization to illustrate the controversies of invasive and non-invasive monitoring in the management of such cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
