Abstract
Reported is a case of placental chorioamnionitis in which a dramatic absence of focal inflammatory response is observed in areas of local squamous metaplasia of the amnion. The authors do not think this observation has been reported in the literature. They describe their search to find a repeat occurrence and discuss possible implications of this finding.
