Intravenous immunoglobulin treatment of pregnant patients with recurrent pregnancy loss caused by antiphospholipid antibodies and Rh immunization

J R Scott et al. Am J Obstet Gynecol. 1988 Nov.

Abstract

A patient with antiphospholipid antibodies and nine consecutive fetal deaths and a severely Rh-immunized woman with one previous live birth and seven fetal/neonatal deaths achieved live births after antepartum administration of intravenous immunoglobulin. This agent shows promise as a new treatment for patients with previous repetitive fetal deaths from immunologic causes.
