Micro Vascular Changes in the Placenta of Bangladeshi Overt Diabetic Mothers and Hypertensive Diabetic Mothers

Abstract: It is a significant medical problem when Pregnancy is complicated by diabetes and/or hypertension which affect not only affecting maternal health, but also jeopardizing fetal normalcy? The placenta being the bridge between maternal fetal activities, this structure is considered as a window through which understanding of maternal dysfunctions as well as of their impacts on fetal wellbeing can be obtained. And as it is an almost all-vessel organ, its functional status depends primarily on the structural status o… Show more

“…Thus, examination of placenta gives valuable information about the perinatal health of the baby and mother. 3 Hypertension is one of the common complications met with in pregnancy and diagnosed if maternal blood pressure is more than 140/90 mm of Hg. Hypertension in pregnancy may be chronic hypertension (onset before pregnancy) or may be induced due to pregnancy, preeclampsia and eclampsia.…”

“…A term placenta is dark reddishblue and discoid organ, 15-25 cm in diameter, 400-600 gm in weight, 2-3 cm in thickness and 15 -20 cotyledons (Yetter, 1998). When pregnancy is com11plicated by preeclampsia, its morphophysiology will be altered, which in turn will impact maternal health as well as the fetus (Rahman et al, 2006). Preeclampsia is pregnancy-specific syndrome which usually occurs after 20 weeks of gestation (or earlier with trophoblastic diseases).…”
