| Popis: | We describe a 31-year-old woman, who presented during her first pregnancy, with severe haemolytic anaemia due to auto-immune antibodies against erythrocytes. IgG warm-antibodies, as well as IgM antibodies were found in her serum. This idiopathic form of auto-immune haemolysis was successfully treated with glucocorticoids. During her second pregnancy auto-immune haemolysis again developed and was treated similarly. Two healthy children were born. The uneventful outcome we saw with our patient is in keeping with other reports in the literature. |
