title: Morphofunctional changes in the placenta after ozone therapy.
abstract: Macro- and microscopic aspects in the morphology of placenta after ozone therapy were studied in pregnant women with placental insufficiency and the results were compared with the control group. In the main group, the placentas were smaller and weighed less. After ozone therapy enlargement of terminal villi with true syncytiocapillary membranes was noted. A stimulating effect of ozone therapy on the growth and differentiation of terminal villi was established.
