Objective: In our study we included pregnant patients diagnosed with thrombophilia in whom thromboprophylaxis was initiated and evaluated their perinatal outcomes (pregnancy loss, preeclampsia, low birth weight, preterm labor, and venous thrombosis). We aimed to compare perinatal outcomes of the study group with those of control group with negative thrombophilia screening results. Material and Methods: Pregnant subjects that applied to Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine Hospital between June 2010 and February 2012 were recruited in the study. Patients with a positive thrombophilia screening for primary and secondary recurrent pregnancy loss were initiated a thromboprophylaxia protocol in the first trimester and their demographic backgrounds and past obstetric histories were also recorded. In addition to this, the type of thrombophilia and number of thrombophilia defects were also noted and the route of birth and perinatal outcomes were evaluated prospectively. The control group included patients who had a history of recurrent unexplained miscarriages, with a negative thrombophilia screening. Differences between both groups were statistically significant at a p value
