To our knowledge, this is the first study showing that the MTHFR C677T TT genotype and T allele are associated with severe intervillous and decidual pathologies in patients with pregnancy loss. Differences in pathologic grades of MTHFR C677T TT genotype could support the hypothesis that further periconceptional treatment for pregnancy loss could be customized depending on single nucleotide polymorphisms.
