“…He suggested that this raised pressure would restrict blood flow through all the abdominal viscera especially the uterus, kidneys and liver, and that an exaggeration of this effect might be the cause of pre-eclampsia. Theobald (1932) has shown that the uterus is unlikely to act in this way because the elasticity of the abdominal musculature permits the uterus to expand and increase intraabdominal volume without causing a corresponding increase in intra-abdominal pressure.…”
