The pathologic anatomy of eclampsia, bilateral renal cortical necrosis, pituitary necrosis, and other acute fatal complications of pregnancy, and its possible relationship to the generalized Shwartzman phenomenon

摘要: Abstract Intravascular fibrin deposition in arterioles and capillaries throughout the body is responsible for necrosis hemorrhage seen eclampsia, bilateral renal cortical necrosis, pituitary associated with pregnancy. These cases are often accompanied by severe shock, hemorrhage, anuria. Fibrinogenopenia fibrinolysins develop this group of patients. It suggested that mechanism behind similar to generalized Shwartzman reaction. In some source “toxin” may be a bacterial infection. cases, particularly those toxemia pregnancy, “menstrual toxin” described Smiths.
