title: [Asymptomatic ablatio placentae].
abstract: A 34 years old woman was admitted to our hospital with a retroplacental hematoma of more than 50% of placental area. It was diagnosed by routine pregnancy screening. The patient had no pain, bleeding or other clinical symptoms. 24 hours after inducing fetal lung maturation by betamethasone delivery was terminated by caesarean section in the 32nd week of gestation. Though the diagnose was confirmed by operation there was no influence of fetal outcome. The management of symptomless ablatio placentae is discussed by literature. Termination of pregnancy should be related the gestational age.
