Preeclampsia is one of the “great obstetrical syndromes” in which multiple and sometimes
overlapping pathologic processes activate a common pathway consisting of endothelial cell …

Physiological transformation with remodeling of the uteroplacental spiral arteries is key to a
successful placentation and normal placental function. It is an intricate process that involves …

Placental-related fetal growth restriction arises primarily due to deficient remodeling of the
uterine spiral arteries supplying the placenta during early pregnancy. The resultant …

The term placental bed was coined to describe the maternal-fetal interface (ie, the area in
which the placenta attaches itself to the uterus). Appropriate vascularization of this area is of …
