Key Words Preeclampsia; Placenta; Maternal cardiac function; Cardiovascular; Aetiology
Core Tip The conventional paradigm is that preec?lampsia (PE) is solely due to placental dysfunction. However not all cases of placental dysfunction result in the syndrome of PE. Equally, placental dysfunction - as evidenced by impaired uterine artery Doppler indices, low birth weight and abnormal histology - is not always present in PE. Therefore, the heterogeneity observed in PE cannot be solely explained by placental dysfunction. There is now strong evidence supporting the role of the maternal cardiovascular system in PE. In this mini-review, we evaluate the evidence supporting a dual aetiology of PE, involving both the placenta and the maternal cardiovascular system.
