• Intravenous drug abuse is a risk for alloimmunization in pregnancy. One case is presented of a nulliparous Rhesus-negative parturient who shared her Rhesus-positive partner's needles for the injection of heroin; she subsequently developed elevated antepartum anti-D titers despite routine anti-D prophylaxis.
