In most cases the location was aortic (<jats:italic>n\u2003<\/jats:italic>=\u200313), followed by coronary (<jats:italic>n\u2003<\/jats:italic>=\u20034) and splenic (<jats:italic>n\u2003<\/jats:italic>=\u20033) arteries. Clinical features were various, but most women presented with sudden unexplainable pain. Risk factors were present in 14 cases (61%), with hypertension being most frequently reported in ten cases (43%). Substandard care was determined to have been received in 13 cases (56%), inadequate assessment of complaints and a delay in diagnosis being the most frequent problems identified.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2002<\/jats:bold> Vascular dissection and rupture in pregnancy, although rare, carry a high risk of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Because of the rarity of this condition and its variety in presentation, diagnosis is easily missed. A high index of suspicion when a woman presents with suggestive complaints, leading to an early diagnosis, may improve the prognosis for the woman and her child.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.2011.03178.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,10,21]],"date-time":"2011-10-21T12:44:49Z","timestamp":1319201089000},"page":"86-93","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Maternal mortality attributable to vascular dissection and rupture in the Netherlands: a nationwide confidential enquiry"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"119","author":[{"given":"CF","family":"la Chapelle","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"JM","family":"Schutte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"NWE","family":"Schuitemaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"EAP","family":"Steegers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"van Roosmalen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"on behalf of the Dutch Maternal Mortality Committee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,10,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9378(57)90380-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005792-195809000-00003"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM195412232512607"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(94)90888-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejcts.2010.12.070"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00016340903214965"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006254-198209000-00001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_2","first-page":"336","article-title":"Histopathologic findings in human aortic media associated with pregnancy","volume":"83","author":"Manalo\u2010Estrella P","year":"1967","journal-title":"Arch Pathol"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0741-5214(95)70296-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(08)60994-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.2009.02382.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016341003657876"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_2","volume-title":"Manual of the International Classification of Diseases, Injuries and Causes of Death","author":"International Classification of Diseases","year":"1992"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_2","unstructured":"Statistics Netherlands (CBS).Statline Central Bureau of statistics.2007.
