Placental Location and Reproductive Outcome in Patients With Uterine Septum or Arcuate Uterus [19G]

Abstract

gestation and SAB were examined using Pearson/Spearman correlations, logistic regressions, and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves. FHR_min, SAC_min, and CRL_min were positively correlated with each other (P,.05) and each was negatively correlated with SAB (P,.05). Regression analyses revealed that maternal age and CRL_min were not significant predictors for SAB unlike FHR_min and SAC_min. With one unit increase in FHR_min and SAC_min, the odds of SAB were reduced by 4% and 22%, respectively.CONCLUSION: FHR and SAC can be useful in predicting miscarriage after ART. There is a decrease in miscarriage rates as minimum FHR and minimum sac size increase. Further studies need to be conducted to determine which other parameters can predict a decrease risk of SAB.

The role of diagnostic hysteroscopy in diagnosis of incomplete uterine septum in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss in the era of transvaginal 3D ultrasound scan

“…Such variable reproductive outcomes, miscarriage versus live birth, in these patients, depend on the location of the placenta in relation to the uterine septum [22,23]. Miscarriage is more likely to happen if the placenta is located on the uterine septum, while live birth can occur when the placenta is located on the anterior, posterior, or lateral uterine walls [22,23].…”
