Abstract:
The Authors studied the Human normal full term placenta and in the feto-maternal Rh and ABO incompatibilities. In the Human normal full term placenta the sincitium trophoblastum coat shows the usual microvillosity and the normal cytoplasmatic organules; in the placenta of ABO isoimmunized subjects the sincitium trophoblastum coat is intensely vacuolyzated; in the placenta of Rh isoimmunized subjects the lamina sincitiale vacuolyzation is more evident in the basal side. Discussion on the morphology related to the placenta barrier function.
