Overview

Causes

Intra-amniotic infection so far has only been shown to cause preterm delivery.[1] The other factors are being associated based on reports by clinical, epidemiologic, placental pathologic, or experimental studies.Intra-amniotic infections can be subclinical. One in four preterm infants are born due to this cause.[2]
