December 5 & 6, 2007
PLACENTA
Chorio-amnion
membrane
15-20 cm
indiameter
Umbilical cord
Normal placenta
450-600
gms
PLACENTAL MATURATION
FEATURES OF
NORMAL VILLI
MATURATION:
1. Progressive
diminution in villous
size & stromal content
2. Presence of blood
vessels
3. Syncytial knots
4. Cytotrophoblastic
layer disappears
Syncitial knots
NONNEOPLASTIC
PLACENTAL
DISORDERS
HYDROPIC PLACENTA
HYDROPIC PLACENTA
NORMAL PLACENTA
PLACENTAL INFARCTS
INFARCTS
Based on maternal
surface; common at
margins
More solid than
adjacent tissue &
appear granular
Red to white
Early infarcts: villous
congestion &
collapse w/ loss of
intervillous space
Old infarcts: fibrin
deposition in
intervillous space
PLACENTAL INFARCTS
Non-infarcted area
Infarcted area
Placental infarcts
PLACENTA ACCRETA,
INCRETA, PERCRETA
Abnormal adherence of the placenta
to the uterine wall
Partial or complete absence of
decidual plate (placental villi adhere
directly or invade myometrium)
Deficient in endometrial
desidualization
PLACENTA ACCRETA
Associated conditions:
Previous CS
Hx of uterine curettage scarring ,
infection , leiomyoma
Complications :
PLACENTA PERCRETA
CHORIONIC VILLI
MYOMETRIUM
PLACENTA ACCRETA
PLACENTA PREVIA
Placenta
PLACENTA PREVIA
Toxemia of Pregnancy
Symptoms
complex
characterized HPN, proteinuria
and edema (preeclampsia)
Occurs in 6% of pregnant women
Last trimester and primiparas
Eclampsia severe form
convulsions and DIC
Pathogenesis:
Abnormality of placentations
placental ischemia
uteroplacental perfusion stimulation
of vasoconstrictor substances and
inhibition of vasodilators
HPN, DIC and organ damage follows
Morphology:

TOXEMIA
Clinical course :
starts 32nd wks. AOG
insidious on set
HPN,edema,proteinuria,headache
and visual disturbances
Bed rest,balanced diet and anti
hypertensives
Pregnancy termination - definitive
treatment
Placental infections :
membranes chorio-amnionitis
Umbilical cord funisitis
Chorionic villi villitis
Route of infection :
1. Ascending infection via birth canal
most common ;usually bacterial
2. Hematogenous ( transplacental )
PLACENTAL VILLITIS
CHORIOAMNIONITIS
Ascending infection with neutrophilic
infiltration of the membranes
Opacification of the membranes
Yellow-green coloration due to
myeloperoxidase from neutrophils
May be foul-smelling (anaerobic)
CHORIOAMNIONITIS
surface opacity
Involves surface
and peripheral
membranes
Usual agents:
bacteria
Premature labor
and PROM
CHORIO-AMNIONITIS
NORMAL
FUNISITIS
MATURE BILOBATE
PLACENTA
BILOBED PLACENTA
ACCESSORY LOBE OR
SUCCENTURIATE LOBE
ACCESSORY LOBE
BATTLEDOR PLACENTA
True marginal insertion
Slightly smaller babies on the
average
Less mobile and more prone to
compromise
MARGINAL INSERTION
VELAMENTOUS
INSERTION
MULTIPLE
GESTATIONS
Twin Pregnancies
CHORIONICITY
- 2 placentas
- single shared placenta
- 2 separate fertilized eggs
- 1 fertilized egg splits early
- Chorionic tx in dividing memb
- no chorionic tx in dividing
forms ridge on surface membranes
- Thick & opaque memb - thin & delicate membranes
- Placental surface disrupted - easily separated
when attempt to separate
DICHORIONIC
MONOCHORIONIC
HIGHER MULTIPLE
BIRTHS
COMPLICATION
Ectopic Pregnancy
Ectopic Pregnancy
Predisposing factors :
PID
Peritubal adhesions
Endometriosis
Leiomyomas
Previous surgery
50 % FTs are normal
ECTOPIC
PREGNANCY
Abortion
Incidence
Etiology
of 15 40 %
Diagnosis of abortion :
Identification of :
fetus or fetal parts
chorionic villi *
trophoblasts and *decidual tissues
gestational sac or placental parts
( cord, membranes )
Gestational
Trophoblastic Disease
Spectrum of tumor characterized by
proliferation of pregnancy - associated
trophoblastic tissue of progressive
malignant potential
Types :
1.Hydatidiform mole (H. mole)
2. Invasive mole
3.choriocarcinoma
Hydatidiform mole
Complete
Partial
Invasive mole
Choriocarcinoma
Placental site trophoblastic tumor
Epithelioid trophoblastic tumor
Miscellaneous trophoblastic lesions
Exaggerated placental site
Placental site nodule
Hydatidiform mole
PARTIAL
HYDATIDIFORM MOLE
Hydropic villi are admixed with normal
villi
sometimes with fetal parts
Trophoblastic proliferation around the
hydropic villi is mild and focal
Volume of the placental tissue is normal
Results from fertilization of an egg with
1diploid or 2 haploid sperm
Triploid
