Psychological development of children who received intrauterine transfusions.

The intellectual, visual-motor, and social development of 15 children, 3 to 10 years of age, who received IUT for eythroblastosis fetalis was compared with that of 15 children of similar age who had required only exchange transfusions for the treatment of the same disorder. No over-all differences were found between the two groups or between the groups and the normal population. In comparison with normal population, recipients of IUT have above average IQ's and normal development in visual-motor integration and adaptive behavior.
