Pathology of the Human Placenta

Examination of the placenta often helps to explain an abnormal neonatal outcome, and Benirschke’s Pathology of the Human Placenta, now newly revised and updated, is the gold standard in the field. Completely up-to-date with a comprehensive index and a reorganization of chapters and tables, the Fourth Edition continues to be the essential reference for professionals in the field. Information includes: the latest information on molecular and cellular biology regarding the development of the placenta; a full chapter on legal considerations; vascular abnormalities; anatomy and pathology of the umbilical cord, major fetal vessels and placental membranes, maternal diseases complicating pregnancy: diabetes, tumors, preeclampsia and Lupus; and more.
