Regional variation in the frequency of fibrinoid degeneration in the human term placenta
Zeitschrift Fur Geburtshilfe Und Perinatologie
|April 1, 1982
Abstract:
The frequency of fibrinoid degeneration in different regions of the human mature placenta was determined employing stereologic methods. The results showed the existence of significantly more frequent fibrinoid degeneration in the venous regions. It is suggested that the hypoxia and/or the relative stasis at these levels could stimulate the fibrinoid degeneration of villi.
