“…Infection is widespread in Rio de Janeiro city where anti-B19 IgG antibodies were found in 73.7% of the sera collected during 1985 and 1986 25 . Clinical presentations such as TAC in hereditary spherocytosis and sickle cell patients 13 , fifth disease 12,26 , NIHF 11,16 were also described by us in Rio de Janeiro, and other Brazilian States during the last decade. We are reporting here a 20 months follow up, hold during 1994 to 1996, in a cohort of chronic hemolytic anemia patients attending at Instituto Estadual de Hematologia in Rio de Janeiro.…”

“…A previous study of hydrops fetalis done by the Pathology Department of the Instituto Fernandes Figueira (IFF/FIOCRUZ) during 1954 to 1992 showed that infectious diseases predominate over immunologic causes in the aetiology of hydrops fetalis (Garcia et al 1995). We report here the results of B19 detection in fetal tissues from non-immune hydrops fetalis (NIHF).…”

“…From a collection of 86 cases of NIHF analyzed during 38 years (1954 to 1992) at the Pathology Department in IFF/FIOCRUZ, 28 fetuses were selected because histology suggested intrauterine viral infection. For 23 of these 28 fetuses the aetiology of the NIHF was not known (Garcia et al 1995). In five additional fetuses included as controls the hydrops was diagnosed as a result of syphilis (three) or genetic causes (two).…”

“…Este aumento é possivelmente devido ao fato de o IFF ser um hospital de referência e que os trabalhos publicados por Garcia et al 8 possam ter influído na captação de gestantes apresentando hidropisia fetal, inclusive com aumento na freqüência de casos de hidropisia em relação ao número de nascidos vivos por ano, a partir de 1994. Também verificamos aumento significativo dos casos de hidropisia fetal encaminhados para diagnóstico de infecção por parvovírus B19 até o ano 2002, sendo detectada soroprevalência, durante o período de estudo, de 39%, semelhante à encontrada por Nascimento et al 12 , em mulheres em idade fértil.…”

“…São relatados 15 grandes grupos de causas de hidropisia fetal não imune, sendo as cardiopatias, anormalidades cromossômicas, causas torácicas, transfusão gêmelo-gemelar, anemia e infecções implicadas em mais de 60% dos casos 4,5,6 . Cerca de 20 a 35% dos casos não têm etiologia definida 5,7,8 e a freqüência de hidropisia fetal é relatada, em grandes centros de referên-cia, como até 1/165 nascidos vivos 3 . O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os dados clínicos e laboratoriais, obtidos retrospectivamente por meio da análise de prontuários de pacientes, com diagnóstico de hidropisia fetal imune e não imune, atendidas em uma maternidade terciária durante um período de 10 anos, e comparar os grupos em relação às variáveis estudadas.…”
