Résumé

PROBLEM: To evaluate the inflammatory pattern in maternal circulation from women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) considering the occurrence of histologically confirmed chorioamnionitis (HCA). METHOD OF STUDY: A prospective study was conducted in 121 women with PPROM between 24 and 34 + 0 weeks of gestation. Association between white blood cells (WBC) count, plasma CRP, IL-6, MCP-1 and IP-10 levels, and HCA was assessed. RESULTS: The rate of HCA was 44.7% (54/121). During the 5 days preceding delivery, median CRP, WBC, and IL-6 levels were significantly higher in the HCA than in no-HCA group (P < 0.001). Variations in IL-6, IP-10 levels, during the 24-72 hr before delivery, were predictors of the occurrence of HCA, but the diagnostic accuracy was low [Receiver Operating Characterictic (ROC) curve, area under the curve (AUC) = 0.56]. CONCLUSION: An increase in IL-6, CRP, IP-10 maternal plasma levels was confirmed in PPROM women with HCA. Longitudinal follow-up of these markers did not add valuable information regarding HCA.
