descriptive study analyzing the fetal deaths occurred in Chile in the period 1995-2004.Results:
the LFMR in the period studied was 4,4 /1000newborns (NB). The LFMR in 2004 was 3.7/1000NB and the most prevalent etiologies were gestational pathologies (49 percent), ovular pathologies (21.7 percent), intrauterine hypoxia (12.8 percent), congenital malformations (6.5 percent), maternal pathology not related with pregnancy (4.2 percent) and undetermined cause (3.7 percent).Conclusions:
