Pathology of the Human Placenta remains the most comprehensive and authoritative text in the field. It provides extensive information on the normal placenta, encompassing physiology, metabolism, and endocrinology, and covers the full range of placental diseases in great detail. Further chapters are devoted to abortions, molar pregnancies, multiple pregnancies, and legal considerations. This sixth edition of the book has been extensively revised and expanded to reflect the most recent progress in the field, and a brand new chapter has been added on artificial reproductive technology. Some 800 illustrations are included, many of them in color. The detailed index has been further improved and tables updated. Pathology of the Human Placenta will be of enormous value to pathologists and obstetrician-gynecologists alike.
From the reviews of the sixth edition:
“It is intended for practicing pathologists as well as obstetricians and gynecologists, but because of its detailed description of pathophysiology, it also can serve as a resource for professionals in clinical research. … This is by far the most comprehensive resource in this field. This book has great value for both pathologists with exposure to examination of the placenta and obstetrician/gynecologists who use the reports for management of their patients.” (Raquel K.
