ECC Castro, MA Reis, VPA Teixeira - European Journal of Obstetrics & …, 2004 - Elsevier
Objective: The aim of this study is the morphological and morphometric analysis of the
basement membrane amniotic epithelium of the chorionic plate to establish possible
correlation between the basement membrane amniotic epithelium thickening and maternal
and fetal disorders. Study design: Ninety-one placentas of infants delivered in Medical
Hospital School were studied with hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) and Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS)
methods, morphometric and ultrastructural analysis. Results: Of the 91 placentas analyzed …
