[Macroscopic assessment of the placenta using a morphometric grid. Part II: other selected pathologies].
Kurt Benirschke has once written that the placenta provides the most accurate records of prenatal history of foetus. Our study included 2498 placentas obtained from pregnancy complicated by pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and epilepsy. An obstetrician did the planimetric estimation directly after delivery. A measurement of lesions was conducted with using a special own idea's morphometric grid that allowed us to evaluate a placental surface and a relative size of change statement in a very quick and convenient way. Our method is very useful for making a quantitative estimation of pathological changes in the chorionic plate of placenta.
