Objective: We report a case of successful pregnancy outcome following maternal intravenous immunoglobulin treatment in a woman with previous history of recurrent fetal hydrops secondary to perinatal haemochromatosis.
Methods: A 32-year old woman had two successive pregnancies complicated by fetal hydrops and perinatal deaths. Pathological examination of the fetus showed severe liver destruction with siderosis of hepatocytes at extrahepatic sites, but sparing of the reticulo-endothelial elements, consistent with the diagnosis of perinatal haemochromatosis.
