Widespread Microbial Invasion of the Chorioamniotic Membranes is a Consequence and not a Cause of Intra-amniotic Infection

Acute chorioamnionitis is a response to amniotic fluid (AF) infection. However, it remains unclear whether substantial bacterial propagation in the chorioamniotic membranes (CAMs) precedes microbial invasion of the amniotic cavity (MIAC), which is inconsistent with characteristic “amniotropic neutro...
