Peculiar blood flow profiles among placental chorionic villous vessels of an abnormally thick placenta in a case of systemic lupus erythematosus characterized using microvascular imaging

Abstract: We present a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus receiving long-term steroid therapy, who had myometrial thinning, markedly thickened placenta, and fetal growth restriction (FGR). Blood flow profiles of the myometrium, decidua and placental villous vessels (VV) were described using superb microvascular imaging (SMI) at 35 weeks' gestation. Images showed no decidual blood flow underneath the placenta sitting on a thin myometrium and sparse VV distribution and non-visualization of peripheral VV flow. Emerg… Show more

“…There were 12 reports (7 English and 5 Japanese articles), and 14 patients were identified, including our patient. Interestingly, all patients were from Asian counties (Japan [ 3 , 4 , 7 ]), South Korea [ 2 , 6 ] Vietnam [ 5 ]. Here, we reviewed eight patients from 6 English articles, including our patients with SLE during pregnancy with uterine wall thinning and PAS (Table 1 ).…”

“…В настоящее время представлено немало научных работ, посвященных иммуногистохимическому и морфометрическому исследованию плацент, однако остаются не до конца изученными состояние сосудов опорных ворсин и их роль в развитии ПЭ [2,14,17,18]. Имеются единичные работы, в которых дается морфометрическая характеристика облитерационного процесса в артериолах стволовых ворсин, а также предпринимаются попытки объяснить нарушения регуляторных процессов, приводящих к формированию гипертрофии мышечной стенки и суженного просвета артериол [5,10,16,19].…”
