  2. Gestational trophoblastic disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestational_trophoblastic...

    Both are composed of intermediate trophoblast, but their morphological features and clinical presentation can differ significantly. Exaggerated placental site is a benign, non cancerous lesion with an increased number of implantation site intermediate trophoblastic cells that infiltrate the endometrium and the underlying myometrium. An ...

  3. Trophoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trophoblast

    The trophoblast (from Greek trephein: to feed; and blastos: germinator) is the outer layer of cells of the blastocyst. Trophoblasts are present four days after fertilization in humans. [ 1 ] They provide nutrients to the embryo and develop into a large part of the placenta .

  4. Trophoblastic neoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trophoblastic_neoplasm

    Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is group of rare diseases related to pregnancy and included in gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) in which abnormal trophoblast cells grow in the uterus. [1] GTN can be classified into benign and malignant lesions.

  5. Confined placental mosaicism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confined_placental_mosaicism

    Mitotic CPM - Mitotic non-disjunction can occur in a trophoblast cell or a non-fetal cell from the inner cell mass creating a trisomic cell line in the tissue which is destined to become the placental mesoderm. Meiotic CPM - Alternatively, CPM can occur through the mechanism of trisomic rescue. If a trisomic conception undergoes trisomic rescue ...

  6. Placental site trophoblastic tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placental_site_trophoblast...

    A placental site trophoblastic tumor is a monophasic neoplasm of the implantation site intermediate trophoblast, and usually a benign lesion, which comprises less than 2% of all gestational trophoblastic proliferations. Preceding conditions include molar pregnancy (5%).

  7. Extravillous trophoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extravillous_trophoblast

    Extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells migrate from anchoring villi, and invade into the decidua basalis. Their main function is remodelling the uterine spiral arteries, to achieve an increase in the spiral artery diameter of from four to six times.

  8. Blastocyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastocyst

    It possesses an inner cell mass (ICM) also known as the embryoblast which subsequently forms the embryo, and an outer layer of trophoblast cells called the trophectoderm. [1] [2] This layer surrounds the inner cell mass and a fluid-filled cavity or lumen known as the blastocoel. [3] In the late blastocyst, the trophectoderm is known as the ...

  9. Syncytiotrophoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syncytiotrophoblast

    Image showing trophoblast differentiated into the two layers of cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast during implantation. It is the outer layer of the trophoblasts and actively invades the uterine wall, during implantation, rupturing maternal capillaries and thus establishing an interface between maternal blood and embryonic extracellular fluid, facilitating passive exchange of material ...
