Human parvovirus B19 (B19) is widespread infection in humans, yet the impact on adverse pregnancy outcomes is controversial.to evaluate the impact of B19 infection during pregnancy on adverse pregnancy outcome, and investigated the incidence of fetal loss Five weeks after the onset of clinical symptoms of erythema infectiosum, a 24 year old pregnant woman, gravida I, para 0, suffered a hydrops fetalis which resulted in fetal loss. The maternal infection with the human parvovirus B19 could be confirmed serologically with ELISA and immunoblot by
OBJECTIVE
To present the first Australian cases of fetal hydrops induced by parvovirus B19.
METHODS
Autopsies on two cases of intrauterine fetal death with hydrops fetalis and pallor revealed evidence of myocarditis and widespread characteristic inclusion-bearing cells, predominantly erythroblasts.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), used to detect IgG and IgM antibody specific for human parvovirus B19, was established by use of human parvovirus B19 capsid protein VP-1 expressed in Escherichia coli. Paired samples of serum derived from 44 mothers and single samples derived from 24
We present a case of intrauterine parvovirus B19 infection, diagnosed by detection of B19 DNA in the amniotic fluid obtained at 15 weeks of gestation for chromosome analysis in an asymptomatic pregnancy, causing hydrops fetalis 7 weeks later. Following intrauterine transfusion, rapid resolution of
We report a case of hydrops fetalis secondary to transplacental parvovirus B19 infection, in which spontaneous resolution of the hydrops occurred 4 weeks after the initial presentation. This case emphasizes the role of conservative management based on ultrasound evidence of continued resolution of
Intrauterine infection of human parvovirus B19 has recently been identified as an etiology for nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) and fetal death. To examine the frequency of B19 infection in cases of NIHF, forty two cases of NIHF of unknown cause were tested for the presence of B19 antibodies by
BACKGROUND
Primary infection with human parvovirus B19 during pregnancy can lead to fetal hydrops, abortion, or stillbirth. However, reinfection in the presence of pre-existing anti-B19 antibody is generally assumed to have no significant effect on the developing fetus.
OBJECTIVE
To describe a case
Generalized edema is a rare presentation of human parvovirus B19 infection. The etiology of this edema is unclear, particularly because signs of heart or renal failure are often not present. We report the case of a young adult presenting with generalized edema with serological and PCR evidence of
In a retrospective study from 210 foetal autopsies carried out in a period between 1992 and 1999 fifteen hydropic foetuses were found. The cause of the hydrops was shown to be Rh incompatibility in one case only. The cause of hydrops was not discernible in one case. In the others pathological
Four pregnancies, in two women aged 39 and two women aged 34 years respectively, were complicated by foetal parvovirus B19 infection. First-trimester intrauterine death resulting from multiple congenital anomalies was diagnosed in one patient with proven foetal parvovirus B19 infection. In three
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate neurodevelopmental status of children treated with intrauterine red blood cell and platelet transfusion for fetal hydrops caused by parvovirus B19.
METHODS
Maternal and neonatal records of all intrauterine transfusions for congenital parvovirus B19 infection in our center
Human parvovirus B19 infection has been associated with fetal anaemia, hydrops and in some cases fetal demise. We report our experience with nonimmune hydrops fetalis due to human parvovirus B19 infection in 17 pregnancies which were identified sonographically over a period of 10 years. The only
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to assess the prognosis of parvovirus B19 infection with severely anemic and/or hydropic fetuses according to initial ultrasound and biological criteria.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 20 cases of congenital parvovirus B19-proven infection (positive PCR)
Parvovirus B19 infection in the fetus is associated with anemia and hydrops and can result in fetal death. Fetal transfusion has been used in an attempt to improve outcome; however, it is associated with its own perinatal morbidity. We report two cases of fetal parvovirus B19 infection that were
