INTRODUCTION: The Ballantyne syndrome (or mirror syndrome) is a gestational proteinuric hypertension associated with fetal hydrops. This report describes a case in which Ballantyne syndrome reversion occurred despite fetal hydrops persistence.
CASE REPORT: A 24-year-old woman showed fetoplacental hydrops at 28 2/7 gestational weeks. Severe Rh(D) alloimmunization and fetal hemolytic anemia (fetal hematocrit 15.4%) were confirmed by cordocentesis, and an intrauterine transfusion was performed. She also revealed hypertension (160/100 mm Hg), edema and proteinuria (845 mg/day). After four intrauterine transfusions, blood pressure was normalized; urinary proteinuria was not significant, and the edema vanished completely. Fetal hydrops persisted until delivery at 32 gestational weeks, but a partial reduction of placental hydrops was noted.
DISCUSSION: Total or partial reduction of the placental edema may be responsible for the reversal of the Ballantyne syndrome despite the fetal hydrops persistence.
