In the course of 13 years (1977-1989) 223 of 223,121 liveborn infants in the district of Erfurt suffered from haemolytic disease due to Rh-isoimmunization, 0.1 per cent died. An initial drop of morbidity from 1.6 to 0.6 of 1000 newborns was followed by stagnation and further increase during the last years. More than 50% of the affected babies were delivered by women who had to be protected from sensibilization by immune prophylaxis. The cause for the immunization were deliveries (75%), miscarriages and interruptions (23%). The most important reason for the insufficient decrease of the Rh-morbidity is the failure of immune prophylaxis in the case of ABO-incongruence between mother and child. Our results support the demands for a general immune prophylaxis without taking into consideration the main blood groups and the number and result of the pregnancy. The quantity of severe erythroblastosis (7 stillborn and 5 hydropic liveborn) demonstrates the necessity to improve the prenatal management of these babies.
