title: A stillbirth with aspirated squamous pearls and fetoplacental thromboembolism: a new finding and reminder of the importance of placental and fetal pathologic conditions.
abstract: Fetal aspiration of squamous epithelial pearls has probably never been reported. Because of deficient perinatal pathology examinations, the occurrence of fetoplacental thromboembolism is incompletely known. This case report of the two phenomena includes emphasis that placentas should never be frozen; they should be stored at standard refrigerator temperature.
