Fetal thrombotic vasculopathy is a chronic disorder characterized by thrombosis in the fetus leading to vascular obliteration and hypoperfusion.

It is associated with cerebral palsy and stillbirth.

It is more common in women who have diabetes mellitus.

Diagnosis

It can be diagnosed by histomorphologic examination of the placenta and is characterized by fetal vessel thrombosis and clustered fibrotic chorionic villi without blood vessels.
