| placenta triplex | A placenta consisting of three parts almost entirely separate, being joined together only by the blood vessels of the umbilical cord; the foetus is single. Synonym: placenta triloba, placenta triplex. (05 Mar 2000) |

| placenta uterina | <anatomy> The part of the placenta derived from the uterine tissue. See: placenta. Synonym: maternal placenta, placenta uterina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| placenta velamentosa | A placenta in which the umbilical cord is attached to the adjoining membranes, with the umbilical vessels spread out and entering the placenta independently. (05 Mar 2000) |
| placenta, accessory | An extra placenta separate from the main placenta. Also called a succenturiate or supernumerary placenta. Placenta accreta: the abnormal adherence of the chorionic villi to the myometrium. The vascular processes of the chorion (a foetal membrane that enters into the formation of the placenta) grow directly in the myometrium (the muscular portion of the uterus). Normally there is tissue intervening between the chorionic villi and the myometrium. Here there is not. The word accreta comes from the latin accretio from ad meaning to or toward + crescere meaning to grow. Placenta accreta can progress to placenta percreta. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placenta, low | Location of the placenta in the lower part of the uterus (womb) so that the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix. Also known as a placenta previa. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placenta, retained | A placenta which is either adherent or incarcerated by irregular uterine contractions, and which in consequence fails to be expelled after birth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placenta, succenturiate | An extra placenta separate from the main placenta. In anatomy succenturiate means accessory to an organ. In this case, a succenturiate placenta is an accessory placenta. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placenta, supernumerary | A succenturiate or accessory placenta. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placental | 1. Of or pertaining to the placenta; having, or characterised by having, a placenta; as, a placental mammal. 2. <zoology> Of or pertaining to the Placentalia. <zoology> One of the Placentalia. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| placental abruption | <obstetrics> An third trimester complication that results from the haemorrhage and accumulation of blood between the placenta and the wall of the uterus. This inevitably interferes with foetal oxygenation and often necessitates the need for emergency cesarean section delivery. (31 Dec 1997) |
| placental barrier | The semipermeable layer of foetal tissue separating the maternal from the foetal blood in the placenta; composed of: 1) endothelium of the foetal vessels in the chorionic villi, 2) stromata of the villi, 3) cytotrophoblast (negligible after the fifth month of gestation), and 4) syncytial trophoblast covering the villi; the placental membrane acts as a selective membrane regulating passage of substances from the maternal to the foetal blood. Synonym: placental barrier. (05 Mar 2000) |
| placental calcium-binding protein | <protein> Calcium binding protein of placenta, uterus and vasculature containing the EF hand motif. (18 Nov 1997) |
| placental chorioangioma | <radiology> Most common benign tumour of placenta, incidence: 0.7%, Differential diagnosis: hydatidaform mole, large leiomyoma, chorioepithelioma, complications: IUGR, foetal anomaly, polyhydramnios, haemorrhage, heart failure, premature labour (12 Dec 1998) |
| placental circulation | The circulation of blood through the placenta during intrauterine life, serving the needs of the foetus for aeration, absorption, and excretion; also, maternal circulation through the intervillous space of the placenta. (05 Mar 2000) |
| placental dysfunction | 1. Denoting faulty development or ripening; often connoting structural and/or functional abnormalities. 2. In obstetrics, denoting an infant whose birth weight is inappropriately low for its gestational age. 3. Immature development of the placenta so that normal function does not occur. Synonym: placental dysfunction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| in the placenta | Intervillous fibrin with ischemic necrosis of villi. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| total placenta previa | Placenta previa in which the placenta entirely covers the internal os of the cervix. Synonym: central placenta previa, total placenta previa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endotheliochorial placenta | A placenta in which the chorionic tissue penetrates to the endothelium of the maternal blood vessels. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelio-endothelial placenta | A placenta in which the endothelium of the maternal vessels comes in direct contact with the endothelium of the foetal vessels to form the placental barrier. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epitheliochorial placenta | A placenta in which the chorion is merely in contact with, and does not erode, the endometrium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| twin placenta | The placenta(s) of a twin pregnancy; if dizygotic, the placenta's may be separate or fused, the latter retaining two amniotic and two chorionic sacs (dichorionic diamniotic placenta); if monozygotic, the placenta may be a (05 Mar 2000) |
| zonary placenta | A placenta in the form of a band encircling the interior of the uterus. Synonym: zonary placenta. (05 Mar 2000) |
| labyrinthine placenta | A placenta in which maternal blood circulates through channels within the foetal syncytiotrophoblast. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foetal placenta | <embryology> Placenta foetalis, the chorionic portion of the placenta, containing the foetal blood vessels, from which the funis develops; specifically, in humans, it develops from the chorion frondosum. Synonym: pars foetalis placentae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| low placenta | Location of the placenta in the lower part of the uterus (womb) so that the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix. Also known as a placenta previa. (12 Dec 1998) |

| placenta |
A membranous organ that develops during pregnancy. It lines the uterine wall, partially envelopes the fetus, and is attached to the umbilical cord. The placenta exchanges nutrients, wastes, and gases between maternal and fetal blood. Substances ingested by the mother during pregnancy pass through the placenta to the fetus.
