Newborn jaundice

Alternate Names : Jaundice of the newborn, Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia

Pictures & Images

Antibodies from an Rh negative mother may enter the blood stream of her unborn Rh positive infant, damaging the red blood cells (RBCs). The infant responds by increasing RBC production and sending out immature RBCs that still have nuclei. This photograph shows normal RBCs, damaged RBCs, and immature RBCs that still contain nuclei.
