Ten fetuses, severely affected by Rhesus (D) haemolytic disease, received one to three intravascular blood transfusions at between 18 and 30 weeks gestation, with the use of fetoscopically guided needles into one of the umbilical cord vessels. Although the technique was successfully accomplished in all cases, the fetal response to the procedure was varied. Only two fetuses survived beyond the neonatal period, and one child subsequently died principally because of the problems resulting from premature delivery. The reason for the low rate of survival has been explored and the continued use of the method described is now questioned.
十名受恒河猴（D）溶血病严重影响的胎儿，在妊娠18至30周期间接受了一至三次血管内输血，通过胎儿镜引导的针头插入其中一根脐带血管。尽管该技术在所有病例中均成功完成，但胎儿对该操作的反应各不相同。只有两名胎儿存活至新生儿期以后，其中一名儿童随后主要因早产导致的问题而死亡。已对低存活率的原因进行了探讨，现在有人质疑所描述方法的持续使用。
