Chronic Histiocytic Intervillositis with Cytomegalovirus Placentitis in a Case of Hydrops Fetalis

Chronic Histiocytic Intervillositis with Cytomegalovirus Placentitis in a Case of Hydrops Fetalis

Chronic histiocytic intervillositis (CHI) is an infrequent inflammatory placental disorder associated with unfavorable pregnancy outcomes and a high rate of recurrence. This disorder is thought to reflect a maternal delayed hypersensitivity response to fetal antigen(s) in placental tissue. We report...
