- Influence of placental size and gross abnormalities on intrauterine growth retardation in high-risk pregnancies. Meèëjus, Gediminas // Acta Medica Lituanica;2005, Vol. 12 Issue 2, p14
Objective. The aim of the study was to determine a relationship between insufficient fetal growth placental thickness, weight, cord insertion place to placenta and placental gross abnormalities (histological lesions). Materials and methods. During 1998-2001, 121 patients with suspected...
- Gross pathology of the placenta: weight, shape, size, colour. Kaplan, C. G. // Journal of Clinical Pathology;Dec2008, Vol. 61 Issue 12, p1285
The gross examination is critical to making accurate diagnoses on placental specimens. An orderly evaluation of the cord, membranes and villous tissue allows maximal opportunity to recognise abnormalities. Many lesions have a pathognomonic gross appearance, while other processes are best seen on...

Delayed postpartum bleeding can be caused by retained products of conception (RPOC), secondary infection, or more unusually, by sub-involution of placental site. Sub-involution of placental site is suspected when there is delayed onset, abrupt and heavy uterine bleeding in the absence... - Meconium-Stained Amniotic Fluid and Neonatal Morbidity in Near-Term and Term Deliveries with Acute Histologic Chorioamnionitis and/or Funisitis. Rao, Sumana; Pavlova, Zdena; Incerpi, Marc H; Ramanathan, Rangasamy // Journal of Perinatology;Dec2001, Vol. 21 Issue 8, p537
OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence of meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) and neonatal morbidity in near-term and term deliveries with histologic acute chorioamnionitis and/or funisitis compared to those with normal placental histology. STUDY DESIGN: In a retrospective case - control...

Plasmodium falciparum placental infection during pregnancy is harmful for both mother and child. Protection from placental infection is parity-dependent, that is, acquired over consecutive pregnancies. However, the infection status of the placenta can only be assessed at delivery. Here, to...

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia is an uncommon disorder in which the placenta is enlarged with abnormal, large, and often cystic villi with dilated and/or thick-walled vessels. These placental changes can mimic a partial hydatidiform mole but in contrast to a partial mole can coexist with a...
