RESUMEN
La trombocitopenia fetal aloinmune es una condición potencialmente dañina, que puede conducir a la hemorragia intracraneal en el feto o el recién nacido. Ante la ausencia de programas de tamizaje, las medidas preventivas solo son posibles en el siguiente embarazo de mujeres con un niño afectado. Existe controversia sobre la mejor intervención para minimizar el riesgo de hemorragia intracraneal. Se recomienda tratar prenatalmente con inmunoglobulina y esteroides, y se sugiere descontinuar el uso de cordocentesis seriadas. No existen guías de cómo tratar una primigesta, como el caso que se presenta a continuación con esta patología, ni publicaciones de casos similares.
ABSTRACT
Fetal alloimmune thrombocytopenia is a potentially dangerous condition, which may lead to intracranial hemorrhage in the fetus or newborn. In the absence of screening programs, preventive measures are possible only in subsequent pregnancies of women with a child affected by such condition. There is controversy about the best intervention to reduce the risk of intracranial hemorrhage. Prenatal immunoglobulin and steroids treatment is currently recommended. The use of serial cordocentesis is not recommended. There are neither guidelines on how to treat a primigravida with this condition, such as the case presented here in, nor publications of similar cases.
