Study Notes
- Day 11-12: Bilaminar disc grows slowly compared to trophoblast, remains small.
- Day 11-12: Decidua reaction begins, endometrial cells become glycogen and lipid-loaded, tissue is edematous.
- Day 13: Endometrial defect at implantation site completely heals.
- Day 13: Trophoblast primary villi appear, formed by cytotrophoblast cells penetrating syncytiotrophoblast.
- Day 13: Secondary yolk sac appears as small cavity within exocoelomic cavity.
- Day 13: Chorionic cavity and chorionic plate appear, formed by trophoblast and somatopleuric layer of extraembryonic mesoderm.
- Day 13: Buccopharyngeal membrane appears as slight thickening of hypoblastic disc at cephalic region.
- Bilaminar disc remains very small, measuring 0.1 to 0.2 mm.
- Decidua reaction initially confined to implantation site but soon occurs throughout endometrium.
- Trophoblast primary villi form cellular columns surrounded by syncytium.
