Maternal Floor Infarction and Massive Perivillous Fibrin Deposition

Surgical Pathology Clinics
Ona Marie Faye-Petersen, Linda M Ernst

Abstract

Maternal floor infarction (MFI) and massive perivillous fibrin deposition (MPVFD) are pathologically overlapping placental disorders with characteristic gross and shared light microscopic features of excessive perivillous deposition of fibrinoid material. Although rare, they are associated with high rates of fetal growth restriction, perinatal morbidity and mortality, and risks of recurrence with fetal death. The cause of the extensive fibrinoid deposition is unknown, but evidence supports involvement of maternal alloimmune or autoimmune mechanisms. This article presents an updated discussion of features, placental histopathologic differential diagnosis, possible causes, clinical correlates, and adverse outcomes of the MFI/MPVFD spectrum.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
