Özet

The circulating nonspecific immune complexes, complement system peptides and auto-antibodies may induce inflammatory/ thrombotic events at the placenta and impairment of endometrial receptivity as well as disturbed fetal perfusion in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) cases. The aim of the case series was to assess the effect of "Low Molecular Weight Heparin" (LMWH) and Low Dose Corticosteroids (LDC) against possible thromboembolic and inflammatory processes happening at the maternal fetal interface and to assess their efficiency in pregnancy outcomes.
