Abstract

Objective

Marginal cord insertion (MCI) is often defined as an abnormal placental cord insertion (PCI), yet there is limited discussion on the maternal backgrounds and perinatal complications associated with its occurrence. This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate maternal backgrounds associated with MCI and to compare perinatal outcomes between MCI and normal PCI.

Materials and methods

The study included 1038 deliveries from 2021 to 2023 in our institution, examining maternal backgrounds and perinatal outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted for variables that showed significance in univariate analysis of maternal backgrounds. For perinatal outcomes, variables that exhibited significance were further analyzed using multivariable logistic regression, considering factors previously reported to be associated with those events.

Results

9.5 % exhibited MCI. Assisted reproductive technology, nulliparous, and congenital uterine anomalies were identified as independent risk factors for MCI. In perinatal outcomes, fetal growth restriction (FGR) and emergency cesarean section were significantly more prevalent in cases with MCI. Even when compared to factors previously reported to be associated with FGR and emergency cesarean section, MCI remained an independent risk factor.

Conclusion

In addition to previously reported factors such as ART and primiparity, uterine anomalies were also identified as risk factors for MCI. It is important to manage MCI with the awareness that it increases the incidence of perinatal complications.

期刊介绍： Placenta publishes high-quality original articles and invited topical reviews on all aspects of human and animal placentation, and the interactions between the mother, the placenta and fetal development. Topics covered include evolution, development, genetics and epigenetics, stem cells, metabolism, transport, immunology, pathology, pharmacology, cell and molecular biology, and developmental programming. The Editors welcome studies on implantation and the endometrium, comparative placentation, the uterine and umbilical circulations, the relationship between fetal and placental development, clinical aspects of altered placental development or function, the placental membranes, the influence of paternal factors on placental development or function, and the assessment of biomarkers of placental disorders.
