Preterm meconium‐stained amniotic fluid: A red flag for infection and adverse perinatal outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Meconium‐stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) is uncommon in preterm deliveries and raises concerns about maternal and neonatal infectious risks. We aimed to evaluate maternal, perinatal, and microbiological outcomes in preterm deliveries complicated by MSAF compared to clear amniotic fluid (AF) and to assess outcomes in preterm versus term
