[Morphometric studies of histologically classified chorionic villi of human placentas. 1. Placentas of eutrophic and hypotrophic full-term infants].
Occurrence of mature and immature chorionic villi was morphometrically analysed in 30 human placentae of children born on term. The following results were obtained from a method specially developed for surface determination of villus cross-section: The surface of mature villi (end or absorption villi) in children born on term with low birth weight was much smaller than that of immature villi. Total surfaces of mature and immature villi were almost equal in size as of the 25th percentile of child weight. The importance is underlined of a "transitional" class between hypotrophic and eutrophic children born on term, and a pattern of results is suggested.
