Broadsheet number 56: Mechanisms of fetal loss.

Abstract:

:The most significant task of the pathologist examining a fetal death is, if possible, the provision of an explanation for the event, which will allow the clinical attendants to counsel the family in an informed and relevant manner. In some cases, no adequate explanation will be possible, though many conditions will be excluded and the importance of this exercise is worth emphasising. Often, however, a combination of fetal, maternal or placental conditions can be found and a full or partial explanation offered, and it is the purpose of this broadsheet to highlight some of these conditions and provide suggestions as to sources of further practical help.

  • Necropsy findings in childhood leukaemia, emphasizing neutropenic enterocolitis and cerebral calcification.

    abstract::In 50 necropsies on leukaemic children, the major cause of death was infection. In patients dying during therapy for induction or reinduction of remission, the most frequent infection was a distinctive neutropenic enterocolitis or typhlitis. This was seen in 46% of the whole series and was a major factor in the death ...
