The Association between Y Chromosome Microdeletion and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

BACKGROUND To date, the role of male factor contributing in evaluation of spontaneous recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) has been less investigated and there is discrepancy in the role of Y chromosome microdeltions in RPL. Therefore, the current study was designed to examine whether Y chromosome microdeletions were associated with RPL in an Iranian population. METHODS One hundred men from couples...

O-7: Y Chromosome Microdeletions Are Not Associated with Spontaneous Recurrent Pregnancy Loss in A Sinhalese Population in Sri Lanka

Background: Many advances have been made in reproductive medicine yet the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy remains the most common complication of pregnancy. The aetiology of spontaneous recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is multifactorial. Y chromosome microdeletions are found in approximately 7% of men with low sperm counts and, compared to the general population, a higher frequency of spontaneous...

Paternal pericentric inversion of chromosome 4 as a cause of recurrent pregnancy loss.

A paternal pericentric inversion of chromosome 4 was ascertained through karyotype analysis of an abortus specimen proven to be 46,XX,rec(4),dup q, inv (4)(p13q28). The relationship of paternal pericentric inversion to pregnancy loss is discussed, and a recommendation for karyotype analysis of recurrent abortion specimens is made.

combination of thrombophilic gene polymorphisms as a cause of increased the risk of recurrent pregnancy loss

background: recurrent pregnancy loss is (rpl) a heterogeneous condition. while the role of acquired thrombophilia has been accepted as an etiology for rpl, the contribution of specific inherited thrombophilic gene polymorphisms to the disorder has been remained controversial. methods: one hundred women with a history of two or more consecutive abortions and 100 women with at least two live birt...
