MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Erythroblastosis fetalis results from Rh incompatibility, which may develop when a women with Rh negative blood is imprenated by a man with Rh positive blood, and conceives a fetus with Rh positive blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -When the blood of an Rh-positive fetus gets into the bloodstream of an Rh-negative woman, her body will recognize that the Rh-positive blood is not hers. Her body will try to destroy it by making anti-Rh antibodies. These antibodies can cross the placenta and attack the fetus’s blood cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Injections of a medicine called Rh immune globulin can keep your body from making Rh antibodies. It helps prevent the problems of Rh incompatibility. If treatment is needed for the baby, it can include supplements to help the body to make red blood cells and blood transfusions.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is also known as alloimmune HDFN or erythroblastosis fetalis. It is caused by the destruction of neonatal red blood cells by maternal immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies. The formation of maternal antibodies in response to a fetal antigen is called isoimmunization.
