[Ureaplasma urealyticum and chorioamnionitis].
160 placentas from a clinical study group of women with pregnancy wastage and a control group were examined histologically and were cultured for Ureaplasma urealyticum. Recovery of Ureaplasma urealyticum was significantly higher in the pathologic group--43 p. cent--versus 21.6 p. cent in the control group, and was associated with chorioamnionitis.
