Combined use of serum gamma glutamyl transferase level and ultrasonography improves prediction of perinatal outcomes associated with preeclamptic pregnancy

GGT in combination with umbilical artery S/D ratio is a potentially useful marker for the prediction of adverse outcome in severe preeclampsia patients. Future studies in a larger cohort of patients should be performed to verify the efficacy of the strategy. Early and accurate prediction of adverse perinatal events can facilitate the efforts to improve the perinatal outcomes of neonates associated with preeclamptic pregnancies.
