Subchorionic hematomas (SCH) vary in incidence and risk. Small first-trimester SCH pose little risk, but larger second-trimester SCH may increase preterm delivery risk.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Reproductive Medicine

Background:

  • Subchorionic hematoma (SCH) is a common finding in early pregnancy.
  • The clinical significance and prognostic implications of SCH require further clarification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the English literature on subchorionic hematoma (SCH).
  • To analyze the incidence, risk factors, and pregnancy outcomes associated with SCH.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted.
  • Fourteen relevant studies on subchorionic hematoma were reviewed and synthesized.

Main Results:

  • The incidence of SCH varied widely (4-48%) across studies.
  • Small, first-trimester SCH showed no increased risk.

  • Larger, second-trimester SCH were associated with a higher risk of preterm delivery.

    • Conclusions:

    • Subchorionic hematoma diagnosis requires careful consideration of gestational age and size.
    • Further large-scale studies with control groups are needed to elucidate SCH etiology and refine risk assessment.
