The distinction between choriocarcinoma and residual trophoblastic cell proliferation from a complete hydatidiform mole/invasive mole (CHM/IM) without villi is challenging on curettage materials. We investigated whether SALL4 immunostaining could help differentiate various gestational trophoblastic diseases. Placental site nodules (PSN; n=10), atypical PSN (APSN; n=8), placental site trophoblastic tumors (PSTT; n=9), epithelioid trophoblastic tumors (ETT; n=5), gestational choriocarcinomas (n=31), partial hydatidiform moles (PHM; n=13), CHM/IM (n=47), and nonmolar products of conception (POC) (n=26) were included.

Lineage tracing studies suggest that the placenta is not a de novo source of hematopoietic stem cells.

Definitive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) arise from a small number of hemogenic endothelial cells (HECs) within the developing embryo. Understanding the origin and ontogeny of HSPCs is of considerable interest and potential therapeutic value. It has been proposed that the murine placenta contains HECs that differentiate into HSPCs.

Myeloperoxidase-mediated immature dendritic cell promotes vascular remodeling and functional placenta formation.

Introduction: The distribution of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and dendritic cells (DCs) in sponge trophoblast cells may contribute to the syncytialisation of trophoblast cells and the establishment of uterine placental circulation. Our previous series of studies have shown that MPO plays an important role in angiogenesis and repair, and placental vascular dysfunction can lead to serious pregnancy complications and even miscarriage.

Methods: Mouse model of MPO knockout was constructed, and the crosstalk between MPO and dendritic cells (DC) cells was investigated to determine whether MPO is involved in the pregnancy process.

We report the case of a 28-year-old female patient (gravida 2, para 1) who underwent a cesarean section after 33 weeks of pregnancy due to severe preeclampsia. The placenta was deeply embedded in the myometrium. Localized myometrial ischemia occurred following repair and suturing of the myometrium at the placental attachment site.

Clinical factors that influence chorionic villus sampling sample size.

Arch Gynecol Obstet

January 2025

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine, University of Colorado School of Medicine, 12631 East 17th Ave, Aurora, USA.

Purpose: Our primary objective was to characterize clinical and procedural factors affecting sample size in chorionic villus sampling (CVS).

Methods: This retrospective, single-site cohort study included singleton pregnancies undergoing transabdominal (TA) and transcervical (TC) CVS between 2020 and 2023. Prenatal and maternal data were obtained from the electronic medical record.
