الأسئلة الشائعة

What is the placental villous stroma?
The placental villous stroma is the connective tissue core of the chorionic villi, composed of fibroblasts, collagen fibers, and Hofbauer cells embedded in extracellular matrix.
Where is the placental villous stroma located?
Located within the interior of each chorionic villus, the stroma surrounds the fetal capillaries and extends throughout the villous branching system.
What is the function of the placental villous stroma?
The stromal tissue provides structural support for the villus, contains Hofbauer cells for immune function, and houses the fetal capillary network essential for gas exchange.
What is the placental villous stroma connected to?
The stroma is continuous with the connective tissue of the chorionic plate and contains branches of fetal blood vessels derived from the umbilical circulation.
Why is the placental villous stroma clinically important?
Edema or fibrosis of the villous stroma can impair placental function and is associated with maternal diabetes, intrauterine growth restriction, and fetal hypoxia.
