תיאור: The term thrombophilia describes disorders associated with an increased predisposition of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE). It may be acquired, like in those with antiphospholipid syndrome or inherited. The aim of this review was to compare the complications and outcomes of pregnancies in women with inherited thrombophilia between different populations, including the population of our country where the results of the research are scarce. The review of literature included all papers indexed on PubMed and Medline in the last 20 years, with different study design, including other reviews of literature, systematic reviews with meta-analysis and several case-control studies and population-based cohort studies. We aimed to cover as many geographic regions as possible with the aim to show the differences in the different parts of the world and including our country. Our analysis showed that types of thrombophilia differ in different geographic regions. Also, the differences exist between one particular type of thrombophilia in different regions. Nevertheless, no matter what the differences are between prevalence, all authors investigated the association between inherited thrombophilia and poor pregnancy outcome and managed to find some kind of association. The case with our own country is similar. Although we lack in studies with this issue and the design of published studies is not powerful enough, we may conclude that in our samples, women with thrombophilia are in potential risk of several poor pregnancy outcomes. Further and better analyses are necessary to prove this hypothesis not only on the level of study sample but also on general population. Given the fact that thrombophilia certainly affects the pregnancy and its outcome, the urge to perform screening tests in every woman suspected to have this kind of disorder and with respect to differences that exist in different world regions is inevitable. © 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
