Abstract

Introduction: Placenta is a functional unit between the mother and the foetus. Human placenta is discoid, deciduate, haemochorial, chorioallantoic, labyrinthine and endocrine gland which connects developing embryo by umbilical cord to the endometrium of mother’s uterus. The placenta responds to cues in the pregnancy environment through morphological and functional changes in an effort to maintain proper fetal growth and development. For example, delayed maturation of the placenta has been observed in response to increasing maternal BMI. This altered placental maturity may result in poor gas and nutrient exchange at the maternal-fetal interface and, subsequently, suboptimal infant outcomes. Material and Method: This is a prospective study conducted in the Department of Anatomy at Index Medical College over a period of 2 year.
