  2. Chorionic villi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorionic_villi

    The chorionic villi are at first small and non-vascular. 13–15 days: trophoblast only [1] Secondary: The villi increase in size and ramify, while the mesoderm grows into them. 16–21 days: trophoblast and mesoderm [1] Tertiary: Branches of the umbilical artery and umbilical vein grow into the mesoderm, and in this way the chorionic villi are ...

  3. Placental villous immaturity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placental_villous_immaturity

    Placental villous immaturity is chorionic villous development that is inappropriate for the gestational age. It is associated with diabetes mellitus [1] and fetal death near term, i.e. intrauterine demise close to the normal gestational period. [2]

  4. Products of conception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Products_of_conception

    Chorionic villi (right of image) and cartilage, i.e. fetal parts (left of image). H&E stain. Products of conception, abbreviated POC, is a medical term used for the tissue derived from the union of an egg and a sperm. It encompasses anembryonic gestation (blighted ovum) which does not have a viable embryo.

  5. Intervillous space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intervillous_space

    In the placenta, the intervillous space is the space between chorionic villi, and contains maternal blood.. The trophoblast, which is a collection of cells that invades the maternal endometrium to gain access to nutrition for the fetus, proliferates rapidly and forms a network of branching processes which cover the entire embryo and invade and destroy the maternal tissues.

  6. Choriogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choriogenesis

    In developmental biology, choriogenesis is the formation of the chorion, an outer membrane of the placenta that eventually forms chorionic villi that allow the transfer of blood and nutrients from mother to fetus. [1]

  7. Intermediate trophoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_trophoblast

    at anchoring villi of trophoblastic column; Implantation site intermediate trophoblast: at implantation site (or basal plate), differentiated from villous intermediate trophoblast; Chorionic-type intermediate trophoblast at chorionic laeve of fetal membrane, differentiated from villous intermediate trophoblast

  8. Cytotrophoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytotrophoblast

    Histopathology of a chorionic villus, in a tubal pregnancy. The invasive lineage creates cytotrophoblasts that are essential in the process of implantation and forming a fully functional placenta. An undifferentiated cytotrophoblastic stem cell will differentiate into an extravillous cytotrophoblast intermediate and then into an interstitial ...

  9. Chorion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorion

    In humans it is formed by extraembryonic mesoderm and the two layers of trophoblast that surround the embryo and other membranes; [1] the chorionic villi emerge from the chorion, invade the endometrium, and allow the transfer of nutrients from maternal blood to fetal blood.
