Timo R. de Haan,Gerda van Wezel-Meijler,Matthias F. C. Beersma,Jeanette S. von Lindern,Sjoerd G. Duinen,Frans J. Walther +5 more
TL;DR: A newborn infant is reported with a rare combination of a recent central nervous system infection with parvovirus B19 and a factor V Leiden mutation, who developed fetal stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary Secretory Phospholipase A2 in Infants with Respiratory Distress Syndrome Stimulates in vitro Neutrophil Migration
Alexandra J. J. Schrama,Jan G.R. Elferink,C. Erik Hack,Arnout Jan de Beaufort,Howard Berger,Frans J. Walther +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the massive pulmonary neutrophil influx in respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants has been ascribed to the effect of leukotriene B4 (LTB4).
Journal ArticleDOI
Are small for gestational age infants at higher risk for intracranial lesions
TL;DR: SGA infants without external dysmorphology or TORCH infections are not at increased risk for CNS abnormalities detectable by cranial ultrasound, and growth retardation is not associated with a difference in ultrasound detectable CNS abnormalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute Hemorrhage in Monochorionic Twins with Ruptured Velamentous Vessels: Anemic Twin Resuscitated by Its Co-Twin through Placental Vascular Anastomoses?
TL;DR: A case of acute fetal distress in a MC twin pregnancy caused by acute hemorrhage following rupture of velamentous vessels is presented and placental vascular anastomoses had a transient protective role and allowed transfusion of blood from one co-twin into the circulation of the anemic twin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enrico Lopriore,Gerda van Wezel-Meijler,Johanna M. Middeldorp,Marieke Sueters,Frank P.H.A. Vandenbussche,Frans J. Walther +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared laser treatment with amnioreduction in TTTS stage 3-4 and in stage 1-2 and concluded that expectant management in these cases is unnecessary.
