ABSTRACT
Preeclampsia represents a specific complication of pregnancy hypertension, which appears de novo after the 20th week of gestation, accompanied by proteinuria and/or maternal or utero-placental organ dysfunction. Despite an uncertain etiopathogenesis, impaired vascular remodeling of the spiral artery and placental ischemia is the most widespread hypothesis. The finding of elevated levels of copeptin in women with preeclampsia compared to normal pregnant women has valued the involvement of arginine vasopressin in the etiopathogenesis of this complication. In this paper, its usefulness as a marker of preeclampsia is considered through the review of the main studies carried out with this molecule.
