<pre> | |||
PLACENTA, UMBILICAL CORD AND FETAL MEMBRANES, BIRTH: | |||
- THREE VESSEL UMBILICAL CORD WITHIN NORMAL LIMITS. | |||
- FETAL MEMBRANES WITHIN NORMAL LIMITS. | |||
- PLACENTAL DISC WITH THIRD TRIMESTER VILLI, TWO SMALL PLACENTAL INFARCTS | |||
(0.8 CM AND 0.5 CM IN MAXIMAL DIMENSION) AND FOCAL PROMINENCE OF SYNCYTIAL KNOTS. | |||
COMMENT: | |||
There is no decidual hemorrhage or intravillous hemorrhage. The prominent syncytial knots | |||
are suggestive of (focal) ischemia. | |||
