Stereological analysis of chorionic villi in placentas of pregnant women of different age

The terminal and other villi of 30 mature human placentas were morphologically and quantitatively examined in pregnant women of different ages. The group of pregnant women was divided in 1) pregnant women aged 20-35, and 2) pregnant women aged over 35. The surface density and the absolute surface of terminal villi did, n differ significantly. The surface density and absolute surface of other placental villi were significantly higher in placentas of younger pregnant women (p<0.001).
