BACKGROUND: Miscarriage (early pregnancy failure) is a pregnancy-related disease, the pathophysiology of which is still not completely understood. Lipid peroxidation and alterations in antioxidant enzyme activities may be of importance in the pathogenesis of this disorder. This study was planned to investigate the possible relation between free radical scavenging enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation levels in placenta tissues with miscarriage.
