Perinatal outcomes following <i>in‐utero</i> transfusion for hydrops fetalis associated with parvovirus <scp>B19</scp> infection
IUT remains a cornerstone intervention for managing severe fetal anemia caused by PB19 infection; however, rates of perinatal loss continue to be substantial, especially in the presence of severe hydrops. Achieving higher post-transfusion Hb levels appears to be an important factor in improving survival outcomes for hydropic fetuses with PB19 infection. © 2026 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
