Neonatal management of parvovirus B19-induced hydrops fetalis: a case report
This case contributes to the limited evidence on postnatal management of B19V-related NIHF. PD may be considered in neonates with persistent, refractory edema despite maximal conventional therapy, with careful individualization of treatment. Further research, including multicenter registries and controlled studies, is needed to define its role within standardized neonatal care protocols.
