  • Beschreibung: <jats:p>Thrombophilic disorders and hypofibrinolysis were demonstrated to be risk factors in a majority of women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and infertility. We investigated the association of FV G1691A mutation, F II G20210A gene polymorphism (PM), 4G/5G PAI-1 and Alu I/D tPA PM in 32 women with infertility and 49 women with at least 2 unexplained early abortions. FV Leiden mutation was significantly more common in women with RPL (10%, p = 0.02) and infertility (19%, p = 0.0005) compared with controls (2%). PAI-1 4G PM and t-PA Alu I PM, alone or in combination, were not associated with RPL or infertility. 9/49 women with RPL showed coagulation disorders with heterozygous FV Leiden mutation (5), FXII (1), protein C (1) or protein S (2) deficiency. However, due to the small number of patients studied, no definite conclusion can be drawn.</jats:p>
