IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL AND MORPHOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF CHORIONIC TROPHOBLAST AND DECIDUAL CELLS OF FETAL MEMBRANES IN CASE OF ANTE-INTRANATAL FETAL DEATH.

Objective: The aim: To identify immunohistochemical and morphometric features of chorionic trophoblast cells and fetal membranes derived decidual cells, which were obtained from stillbirths associated with pre-eclampsia, iron deficiency anemia, and acute chorioamnionitis.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The study included 58 fetal membranes of fetuses, who died in the ante-intranatal period. The membranes were divided into 6 obstetric history-based groups: premature (n = 8) and full-term (n = 8) stillbirths complicated by preeclampsia; premature (n = 8) and full-term ( n = 8) stillbirths complicated by iron deficiency anemia, premature (n = 10) and full-term (n = 16) stillbirths complicated by chorioamnionitis.

THE MORPHOMETRIC PARAMETERS OF THE PARENCHYMAL AND STROMAL LIVER COMPONENTS OF HEALTHY NEWBORNS FROM HEALTHY MOTHERS WITH A PHYSIOLOGICAL COURSE OF PREGNANCY.

Objective: The aim: To determine the morphometric parameters of the parenchymal and stromal liver components of healthy newborns.

Patients And Methods: Material and methods: The morphometric investigation included 45 liver tissue biopsies of healthy newborns. All morphometric parameters of the parenchymal and stromal liver components were calculated using the Avtandilov microscopic morphometric grid.
