  • Title: [Alpha fetoprotein in maternal blood during normal and pathological pregnancies].

    Abstract:
    AFP was assayed in serum of normal pregnant women and in patients with pathological pregnancy. Pathological levels of AFP, defined as increased or decreased concentrations compared with the normal distribution, was detected in 83.5 % of pregnant women who delivered a dysmature child and in 88 % of those whose placenta was macroscopically sclerous. A longitudinal determination of AFP appears to be useful in the follow-up of risk of abortion.
