RESUMEN
Hematologic causes of hydrops fetalis include homozygous alpha-thalassemia and immune hemolytic anemias. We report the case of a boy with hydrops fetalis who had homozygous alpha-thalassemia and alloimmune hemolytic anemia due to anti-E and anti-C blood group antibodies. He received intrauterine red blood cell transfusions and postnatal chronic transfusion with iron chelation therapy. A non-myeloablative sibling stem cell transplant failed. He is now 5 years and 6 months of age, hypothyroid with short stature, but in overall good health. He is one of the oldest reported homozygous alpha-thalassemia survivors and, to our knowledge, the only survivor with immune- and nonimmune-induced hydrops fetalis.
