چکیده

Pregnancy is a hypercoagulable state with an increased thrombotic risk throughout gestation and the postpartum period. Women with thrombophilia may have a further increased risk of placental vascular complications, including pregnancy loss, preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, and placental abruption. Preliminary data suggest that maternal antithrombotic prophylaxis may result in improved gestational outcome. Randomized trials are under way and hopefully will optimize maternal and neonatal outcome.

However, this is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis and placenta-mediated complications, which present major challenges for mother and fetus. Although these conditions are heterogeneous in their pathophysiology, hereditary and acquired thrombophilia has been ass...

Thrombophilia and Pregnancy Complications

There is a paucity of strong evidence associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and thrombophilia in pregnancy. These problems include both early (recurrent miscarriage) and late placental vascular-mediated problems (fetal loss, pre-eclampsia, placental abruption and intra-uterine growth restriction). Due to poor quality case-control and cohort study designs, there is often an increase in the ...
