41. RH INCOMPATIBILITY---RhHDN: Intermediate (kernicterus)
    Intermediate Hemolytic Disease (kernicterus). High levels of bilirubin can causea condition called kernicterus which results in nerve damage in the brain.  
    http://demeter.hampshire.edu/~rhinfo/intermediate.html
    
    Extractions: Infants with intermediate hemolytic disease are generally born at or near term (40 weeks) and appear to be in good condition. If, however, these infants are not carefully treated at birth, they can develop anemia and increased levels of bilirubin (hyperbilirubinemia) as a result of the increase red blood cell destruction. When red blood cells are destroyed, one of the byproducts is bilirubin. High levels of bilirubin can cause a condition called kernicterus which results in nerve damage in the brain. Prevention of kernicterus includes careful monitoring of neonatal bilirubin levels and putting the baby under special lights (phototherapy) to reduce the level of bilirubin in the body. In many cases, an exchange transfusion is needed. This involves removing much of the baby's blood and replacing it with Rh-negative blood. The new blood, which is carefully screened to be compatible with the baby and to be free from diseases (including HIV and Hepatitis), helps to eliminate the anemia by bringing in healthy red blood cells and also removes much of the excess bilirubin. Kernicterus is quite rare with advanced techniques in neonatal management. Experts in the field report knowing of few, if any, cases in recent history. Those babies who do develop kernicterus and survive may suffer from deafness, cerebral palsy and/or other conditions caused by the nerve damage.

    Extractions: Bebé ictérico Información general Prevención Síntomas Tratamiento Hidropesía fetal; kernicterus; enfermedad hemolítica del neonato inducida por Rh; enfermedad hemolítica del recién nacido. La incompatibilidad Rh se desarrolla cuando existe una diferencia en el tipo de sangre Rh de la mujer embarazada (Rh negativo) y el del feto (Rh positivo). Como consecuencia, se forman anticuerpos anti-Rh positivos. Ver también incompatibilidad ABO Durante el embarazo , los glóbulos rojos de la circulación fetal se mezclan con la circulación materna. Si la madre es Rh negativo, su sistema no tolerará la presencia de células Rh positivas. Su sistema inmunológico trata a las células Rh fetales positivas como si fuesen una proteína o sustancia extraña y crea anticuerpos contra las células sanguíneas fetales. Estos anticuerpos anti-Rh positivos se desplazan a través de la placenta hacia el feto y destruyen los glóbulos rojos circulantes. Por lo general, el primer hijo no se ve afectado (a menos que la madre haya tenido embarazos interrumpidos anteriormente, los cuales podrían haber sensibilizado su sistema) ya que toma tiempo para que la madre desarrolle anticuerpos contra la sangre fetal.

    Extractions: kernicterus Kernicterus is a condition associated with high levels of bilirubin in the blood in early life that may present with severe neurological symptoms. Unconjugated bilirubin is lipid soluble and travels in the circulation largely bound to albumin. However, if the levels of unconjugated bilirubin are high a small fraction of free bilirubin escapes from the vascular compartment and enters the cellular lipid fraction of brain cells, causing a brain damage that may or may not be permanent, i.e. kernicterus.

This does not mean that every baby with yellow skin will have brain damage. Most babies with jaundice get better by themselves. If their skin is very yellow, they might need phototherapy treatment. If phototherapy does not lower the baby's bilirubin levels, the baby may need an exchange transfusion. Top

    Extractions: The yellow staining in the brain of a neonate is known as kernicterus. There is a coronal section of medulla on the left and cerebral hemisphere on the right demonstrating kernicterus in deep grey matter of hemisphere and brain stem. Increased unconjugated bilirubin, which accounts for the kernicterus, is toxic to the brain tissue. Kernicterus is more likely to occur with prematurity, low birth weight, and increased bilirubin levels.
