Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by hallmark amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles as well as by a significant loss of myelin in the cerebral cortex and other brain regions, which contributes to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Remyelination, of the myelin sheath by oligodendrocytes, is a process that may be impaired in neurodegenerative diseases. Depending on the severity of the disease, there occurs loss or partial damage of the myelin sheath surrounding the neuron leading to memory deficits.

Gestational alloimmune liver disease (GALD) is characterized by maternal IgG-directed fetal hepatocyte damage and can lead to severe liver failure and fetal or infant death. Moreover, GALD is associated with a near 90% risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies. We present a case of a newborn patient delivered to a 32-year-old G2P1000 mother who received prolonged antenatal intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment during the current pregnancy due to the neonatal death of the first child from GALD-related liver failure.
