'''Placental villous immaturity''', abbreviated ''PVI'', is a relatively common pathology of the [[placenta]].


It is also known as '''distal villous immaturity''', '''villous immaturity''', and '''villous dysmaturity'''.<ref name=Ref_Placenta_375>{{Ref Placenta|375}}</ref>

Features:<ref name=Ref_Placenta_375>{{Ref Placenta|375}}</ref>
*Increased numbers of (immature) intermediate villi (in relation to the gestational age) with:
**Increased number of capillaries.
**Edema.
**Macrophages.
**Large diffusion distance (vessel-to-villous surface distance large).
*Less (mature) terminal villi.<ref name=pmid18382864>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Daskalakis | first1 = G. | last2 = Marinopoulos | first2 = S. | last3 = Krielesi | first3 = V. | last4 = Papapanagiotou | first4 = A. | last5 = Papantoniou | first5 = N. | last6 = Mesogitis | first6 = S. | last7 = Antsaklis | first7 = A. | title = Placental pathology in women with gestational diabetes. | journal = Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand | volume = 87 | issue = 4 | pages = 403-7 | month =  | year = 2008 | doi = 10.1080/00016340801908783 | PMID = 18382864 }}</ref>
