Given last week's #pathcast & my #placentapath struggles, here's a quick #pathtweetorial !
🦠Acute chorioamnionitis🦠
✏ Stage:
1️⃣ = Chorion
2️⃣ = Chorion + amnion
3️⃣ = 2️⃣ + necrosis
✏ Grade:
1️⃣ = not 2️⃣
2️⃣ = 3+ chorion microabscesses, or PMNs in >50% or 1 membrane roll*

This is a section of umbilical cord showing one of the umbilical arteries. Who knows what's going on? What cells are represented by A, B, and C? Classic example. #pedipath #placentapath #placentabuddies

Nucleated fetal red blood cells in a preterm placenta. These would be an abnormal finding in a term placenta. #PlacentaPath #PathTwitter #MSGPath

Striking example of Hypercoiled umbilical cord (= or >4 coils/ 10 cm). This can cause stasis/ obstruction of umbilical blood flow and lead to fetal vascular malperfusion #placenta path #perinatalpath #pedpath #neonatology #placenta #PathTwitter
