RESUMEN
Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) is a regularly utilized antenatal screening test for the identification of pregnancies at increased risk for a variety of genetic and nongenetic abnormalities. Complete mid-trimester evaluation of the patient with a positive screening test may fail to reveal an etiology for a positive MSAFP value. This case report concerns an unexplained positive/elevated MSAFP screening test for a patient found at delivery to have abnormal placentation.
