DEVELOPMENT OF THE
PLACENTA
THE PLACENTA
Human placenta is discoid in shape , this placenta is
attached to the uterine wall and establishes connection
between the mother and the fetus through the umbilical
cord
DEVELOPMENT OF THE PLACENTA
Small projection appear on the trophoblast layer of the
blastocyst – which proliferate and branch from three weeks
after fertilisation , forming the chronic villi .
The villi becomes more profuse in the area where the blood
supply is richest – i.e in the basal decidua . This part is called
as the chorion fundosum – it will develop the placenta
The villi under the capsular decidua , being less well nourished
, gradually degenerate and form the chorion laeve.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE PLACENTA
The FUNCTIONAL ELEMENT OF THE placenta is
called as the CHORIONIC VILLI- These are small
finger like projections formed on the surface of the
trophoblast ..
It is within this villi that the capillaries through which
the fetal blood circulates , and the exchange b/w fetal
and maternal circulation takes place .
PLACENTA DEVELOPMENT
FORMATION OF CHORIONIC VILLI
-Functional element of the placenta
-Small fingerlike process
-Villi are surrounded by maternal blood
-In the villi there are capillaries through which the fetal
blood circulates
-Exchange between fetal and maternal circulations takes
place through the tissues forming the walls of the villi
-villi are formed as from the surface of the trophoblast
The trophoblast and extra embryonic mesoderm constituents
chorion,the villi arising from it are called chorionic villi
It will first formed all over the trophoblast and grow into the
surrounding decidua
Thse villi which is related to decidua basalis undergo
considerable development,along with the tissues of the basalis
these villi form a disc shape mass called placenta
The part of chorion that helps to form placenta called chorion
fundosum
The villi related to the decidua capsularis are less
nourished,gradually degenerate and thin part of chorion
becomes smooth and is called the chorion laevae
HOW THE CHORIONIC VILLI IS FORMED
Trophoblast
multiply
syncytiotrophoblast &cyto trophoblast
3. Pre-embryonic
4. Embryonic stage
5. Fetal stage
FRIST WEEK
Division of the zygote
Zygote to morulla
Blastocyst enlarges
syncytiotrophoblast
cytotrophoblast
SECOND WEEK
Inner cell mass differentiates into 2 layers
endoderm//hypoblast and ectoderm //epiblast
Amniotic cavity appears
Decidua divides – decidua basalis, parietalis , capsularis
9th day vacuoles appear ,fuse to form lacunae
11 th day syncutium enzyme break down the vessel walls
releasing blood
EMBRYOBLAST
Develops the embryo, and differentiate into two types
of cells-
Epiblast- epiblast have three layers, which forms
the particular parts of the embryo. The first
appearance of these layers, collectively known as
the primitive streak is around 15 days.
Hypoblast- the hypoblast cell migrate along with
inner cytotrophoblastic lining secreting extracellular
tissue which becomes the yolk sac.
POST- IMPLANTATION CHANGES IN THE
UTERUS
EMBRYONIC STAGE
The embryonic stage of development begins at a day
15after conception and continues through week 8
Here takes place gastrulation and neurulation
Malformations
GU SYSTEM
The kidneys are begins to produce urine(amniotic fluid
increase)
Well differentiated genitals appear
Quickening
Ears are flat and shapeless but the fetus can hear
)25-29 WEEK
35-38 cm in length ,1200gm in wt
Less wrinkled
AT 39-40 WEEK
Fetus is fullterm 50cm in length,3000-3600gm in wt
