Massive Perivillous Fibrinoid Degeneration of Placenta/ Maternal Floor Infarct: A Case Report

We present a case report of “placental massive perivillous fibrinoid degeneration/maternal floor infarction (MPFD)” with very large avascular placenta. Th is can lead to fetal growth restriction (FGR) and other complications for the fetus. It is also known to be associated with antiphospholipid syndrome. Management with low dose aspirin and low molecular weight heparin achieves good results.
