Abstract
Preterm preeclampsia (PE), occurring at < 37 weeks’ gestation, can be predicted from as early as 11–13 weeks and prevented with the use of aspirin. In contrast, term PE, which is more common than preterm-PE and it can be associated with important maternal morbidity and mortality, cannot be effectively predicted at 11–13 weeks and cannot be prevented by the prophylactic use of aspirin. This paper briefly reviews the pathogenesis of term PE and discusses strategies available for its prediction.
