J. MOODLEY, MB, ChB, K. REDDI, MB, ChB, R. NORMAN, MD and J. K. NAIDOO, MB, ChB

From the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynaecology and of Chemical Pathology, King Edward VIII Hospital and Faculty of Medicine, University of Natal, Congella, Natal, Republic of South Africa.

Amniotic fluid from 19 patients with preeclampsia was compared with samples from normotensive control subjects with respect to the levels of prostaglandin 6-keto prostaglandin F1aL, thromboxane B2, and the ratio of 6-keto prostaglandin F1{alpha} to thromboxane B2. The study found no significant differences in the levels of these prostanoids or the ratio of 6-keto prostaglandin F1{alpha} to thromboxane B2 (study patients, 2.7 ± 2.1; control patients, 2.8 ± 1.9) between groups.
