Abstract

Preeclampsia is a systemic syndrome in pregnancy that is characterized by decreased organ perfusion due to endothelial dysfunction and systemic inflammation. It caused by many proposed etiologies and multifactorial factors behind it, thus preeclampsia is known as the disease of theory. Preeclampsia can be divided into 2 categories based on the clinical presentation, which are: preeclampsia and severe preeclampsia. The aim of this study is to determine the clinicopathological characteristics of preeclampsia patients. A descriptive study using 56 samples of placenta from preeclampsia patients was conducted, and the following clinical characteristics were presented: age, gestational age, gravida, and hypertension history. Preeclampsia was found in 51.8% of the samples (29) and severe preeclampsia was found in 48.2% of the samples (27). Most samples (69.6%) had an age range of 20-35 years, 73.2% (41 samples) had 2-5 times of pregnancy (gravida), 76.8% (43 samples) had 37-42 weeks of pregnancy, and most samples (73.2%) had no hypertension history. The histopathological found calcification and syncytial knots in villi chorialis.
