Early recurrent miscarriage: histology of conception products.
The histopathological appearance of conception products from 44 women with recurrent miscarriage was compared with those obtained from 105 women with sporadic miscarriage. Abnormal villi, suggesting fetal chromosomal abnormalities, were found in 62% of women with a recurrent miscarriage and in 58% of those with sporadic miscarriage. This difference is not statistically significant.
