Resumen
La villitis de origen desconocido supone un importante desafío para la patología perinatal. A menudo seasocia con crecimiento intrauterino retardado, abortos de repetición y muerte fetal tardía. La frecuencia deesta afección es de, aproximadamente, entre el 5 y el 8% en estudios placentarios consecutivos. La etiología es desconocida, y no es el resultado de infecciónpor patógenos habituales.
Summary
Villitis of unknown origin remains a significant challenge in perinatal pathology. It is often associated with fetal growth retardation, recurrent abortions and fetal deaths. The frequency is, approximately, 5 to 8% of consecutively studied placentas. The aetiology is unknown, it is not the result of infection with common pathogens.
