Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation leading to Fetal Death in Utero and Uterine Infarction.

Abstract

This is a unique case report in the medical literature in which DIC is a causative factor for FDIU and subsequent uterine infarction. It is important to recognize early signs of sepsis in pregnant women to minimize this rare but important condition, which may lead to FDIU, PPH, and uterine infarction. Accurate diagnosis based on clinical history, laboratory results, and imaging findings is crucial in the management of this life-threatening disease and the recognition of its associated complications.
