Abstract
Objectives
Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a devastating complication of pregnancy with various etiologic backgrounds.
Case presentation
We present a case of combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 3 (COXPD3) carrier pregnant woman with Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphisms. She had five pregnancy losses and a postpartum death due to COXPD3. The patient was admitted to our clinic for the first time at her seventh pregnancy with oocyte donation. The patient was registered in a special antenatal care program and delivered a healthy baby at term. Her eighth pregnancy was terminated due to COXPD3 which was prenatally diagnosed.
Conclusions
Comprehensive and individualized approaches are necessary in RPL cases to obtain optimal outcomes.
