Lateral placentation and adverse perinatal outcomes
Placenta(2020)
Abstract
Lateral placentation may compromise placental perfusion, and we aimed to assess whether it impacts pregnancy outcomes. This single-center retrospective study included 1203 singleton pregnancies, categorized into two groups according to placental location. Women with lateral placenta had significantly higher risk of preterm birth <37 weeks (aOR 2.99) and <34 weeks (aOR 3.92), and gestational diabetes (aOR 2.72), compared to women with central placenta. Mean birth weight and small for gestational age (SGA) rates were similar between groups. Our findings suggest that lateral placenta may be associated with increased risk for preterm birth but not for SGA.
