Fetal akinesia deformation sequence and massive perivillous fibrin deposition resulting in fetal death in six fetuses from one consanguineous couple, including literature review

Abstract Background Massive perivillous fibrin deposition (MPFD) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and is mainly caused by maternal factors with limited involvement of fetal or genetic causes. We present one consanguineous couple with six fetuses developing Fetal Akinesia Deformation Seq...

Thereafter, growth restriction, persistent flexed position, abnormal motility, and contractures in 4/6, consistent with FADS occurred. All placentas showed histologically confirmed MPFD.
