3 Questions
What is hydatidiform mole?
A condition where the trophoblast develops and forms placental membranes without embryonic tissue
When can hG be detected and what is it used for?
It can be detected at the end of the 2nd week and is used for pregnancy testing
What is placenta previa and what are its consequences?
It is a condition where the placenta is implanted too low in the uterus, causing bleeding
Study Notes
- Days 9-10: formation of multinucleated trophoblastic mass, extroembryonic mesoderm, connection stalk, filling of lacunar spaces with maternal blood.
- Day 13-14: continued development.
- Abnormal implantation can cause placenta previa and life-threatening bleeding.
- Ectopic pregnancy occurs when implantation happens outside the uterus, typically in the uterine tube.
- Hydatidiform mole is a condition where the trophoblast develops and forms placental membranes without embryonic tissue.
- hG can be detected at the end of the 2nd week and is used for pregnancy testing.
- Most ectopic pregnancies occur in the uterine tube, with the embryo typically dying around the 2nd month of gestation.
- Placenta previa can cause severe bleeding in the 2nd part of pregnancy.
- Hydatidiform mole involves abnormal development of the trophoblast.
- Continued development occurs throughout the described period.
