Cordocentesis & Fetal Blood Transfusion
Cordocentesis with fetal blood transfusion is a specialized procedure performed during pregnancy to treat severe anemia (low red blood cell count) in an unborn baby. Using ultrasound for guidance, a doctor inserts a thin needle through the mother's abdomen into a blood vessel in the baby's umbilical cord and transfuses compatible donor blood directly to the baby. This helps restore healthy blood levels, improves oxygen delivery, and can allow the pregnancy to continue safely until the baby is ready to be born.
