Rare vasculitis types and obstetric and neonatal outcomes – A population‐based study
Abstract Objective Vasculitis is an infrequent pathology among reproductive‐aged women. While data exists regarding pregnancy outcomes in the more common vasculitis subtypes, data is limited regarding these outcomes in rare vasculitis subtypes. We aimed to compare pregnancy and perinatal outcomes between women who suffered from rare types of vasculitis

Chorioamnionitis is a risk factor for fetal and neonatal outcomes. Therefore, predicting histological chorioamnionitis (HCA) and neonatal outcomes using clinical parameters could be helpful in management and preventing morbidities. To determine if parameters of clinical chorioamnionitis (CCA) would be associated with HCA and neonatal outcomes.
