Anti-Yta does not cause hemolytic disease of the newborn

Obstet Gynecol. 1992 May;79(5 ( Pt 2)):872-3.

Abstract

Anti-Yta has been reported to cause hemolytic disease of the newborn. We present a pregnancy complicated by anti-Yta alloimmunization. Based on reassuring monocyte monolayer assay results, the pregnancy was followed without invasive testing. The infant subsequently had a benign course in the nursery. We conclude that anti-Yta did not cause hemolytic disease of the newborn.
