المستخلص

Preeclampsia can be considered a two stage disorder, with the first stage involving abnormal placentation and the second being the abnormal maternal adaptation to the pregnancy that results in systemic dysfunction. Past, persistent or recurrent infection with C. pneumoniae may contribute to abnormal vascular function, atherosis and the abnormal placental perfusion that marks the first stage of preeclampsia.
Many studies were done considering the relation between C. pneumoniae infection and preeclampsia. Most of these studies were concerned mainly with chronic C. pneumoniae infection and most of them found a positive correlation between chronic C. pneumoniae infection and preeclampsia.
