The document provides information on the development of the placenta and fetus. It discusses that the placenta develops from the trophoblastic layer of the blastocyst starting at 3 weeks after fertilization. The placenta establishes maternal-fetal circulation by 17 days and reaches maturity by the third trimester. It functions to transport oxygen, nutrients, and waste between the mother and fetus. Fetal development proceeds rapidly from the embryonic stage through the fetal stages, with all major organ systems developed by 8 weeks and the fetus gaining weight and physical features through the second and third trimesters.
The female reproductive system contains two main parts: the uterus, which hosts the developing fetus, produces vaginal and uterine secretions, and passes the anatomically male sperm through to the fallopian tubes; and the ovaries, which produce the anatomically female egg cells.
The menarche is one of the later stages of puberty in girls. The first period is called menarche . The average age of menarche in humans in 12years, but is normal anywhere between ages 8-16.
A number of physical and psychological changes take place at puberty:- The uterus , the uterine tubes and the ovaries reach maturity.
The menstrual cycle and ovulation begin {menarche},The breast develop and enlarge,Pubic and auxiliary hair begins to grow, Increases in height and widening of the pelvis. Increased fat deposited in the subcutaneous tissue especially at the hips and breasts. The cessation of menstrual cycles at the end of a woman's reproductive life is termed menopause. The average age of menopause in women is 51 years, with anywhere between 40-58 being common.
Menstruation is the periodic discharge of blood and sloughed endometrium (collectively called menses or menstrual flow) through the vagina.
The menstrual cycle is the regular natural change that occur in the female reproductive system (specially the ovaries and uterus) that makes pregnancy possible. This cycle is controlled by hormones, The menstrual cycle occurs because of a complex relationship between hormones from the brain and ovaries. This leads to the development and release of an egg from the ovary (ovulation) and growth of the internal lining (endometrium) of the uterus, to prepare it for pregnancy
Menarche is the first menstrual cycle, or first menstrual bleeding, in female human beings.
The average age of menarche is 11.75 years.
Menopause is the permanent cessation of menses.
Menopause typically (but not always) occurs in women during their late 40s or early 50s, and signals the end of the fertile phase of a woman's life.
Prolonged labor is the inability of a woman to proceed with childbirth upon going into labor. Prolonged labor typically lasts over 20 hours for first time mothers, and over 14 hours for women that have already had children.

Placenta , memberanes and amniotic fluidDr anil kumar
Placenta is a hemochoreal. It is deciduate. It develops from trophoblasts.5/6 of placenta is fetal origin and 1/6 is maternal origin.It act as semipermiable memberane to exchange substances between fetus and mother.
Amniotic fluid if less in volume is called oligohydramnios .If excee,called polyhydramnios.
Oligohydramnios is associated with IUGR,renal agenesis and posterior urethral valve .
Polyhydramnios is associated with anencephly, meningocele, sacral agenesis ,diabetes in mother etc

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
2. INTRODUCTION
• The Placenta is partly fetal and partly
maternal in origin.
• It connects closely with the mother’s
circulation to carry out functions, which the
fetus is unable to perform for itself during
intrauterine life.
3. DEVELOPMENT OF PLACENTA
• The small projections that appear on the
trophoblastic layer of the blastocyst proliferate
and branch from about 3 weeks after
fertilization, forming the chorionic villi.
• The villi become most profuse in the area where
the blood supply is richest, i.e. in the basal
decidua.
4. • This part of the trophoblast is known as
Chorion frondosum. It will eventually develop
into the placenta.
• The villi under the capsular decidua get less
nourishment and gradually atrophy and form the
chorion laeve or bald chorion.
• The villi erode the walls of maternal blood
vessels as they penetrate the decidua, opening
them up to form a lake of maternal blood in
which they float.
5. • The opened blood vessels are known as sinuses
and the area surrounding the villi as blood
spaces.
• Maternal blood circulates slowly in these vessels,
enabling the villi to absorb food and oxygen, and
to excrete waste.
• A few villi are attached more deeply to the
decidua and are called anchoring villi.
• Placental circulation is established by 17th day.
6.
7. CIRCULATION THROUGH
PLACENTA
• Fetal blood that is low in oxygen is pumped
by the fetal heart towards the placenta
along their branches to the capillaries of the
villi.
• The blood returns to the fetus via umblical
vein after giving up carbon dioxide and
absorbing oxygen.
8. • Maternal blood is delivered to the placental
bed in the decidua by spiral arteries that
flow into the blood spaces surrounding the
villi.
• The blood enters the sinuses in a funnel
shaped stream similar to a fountain and as
it passes upwards, bathes the villus and
drains back into a branch of uterine vein.
9.
10.
11. MATURE PLACENTA
• The normal term placenta is a flattened
disk like mass with a circular or oval
outline.
• Average Volume = 500 ml (200-900ml)
• Average Weight = 500 g ( 200-800g)
• It often weighs approx. one sixth of baby’s
weight at term.
12. • Average diameter = 20cm
• Thickness = 2.5 cm
• The fetal surface of the placenta is smooth,
shiny and transparent. The underlying
chorion can be seen through it.
• The maternal surface is granular and
divided into 15-30 lobes (average 20) called
Cotyledons by a series of fissures termed as
sulci.
15. RESPIRATION
• The fetus obtains oxygen and excretes
carbon dioxide through the placenta.
• Oxygen from the mother’s hemoglobin
passes into fetal blood by simple diffusion
and similarly the fetus gives off the carbon
dioxide into the maternal blood.
16. NUTRITION
• All the nutrients are transported across the
placental membrane.
• Food from the maternal diet gets broken
down into simpler forms by the time it
reaches the placental site.
• The placenta selects those substances
required by the fetus.
17. STORAGE
• The placenta stores glucose, iron and
vitamins.
• Glucose stored in the form of Glycogen gets
reconverted to glucose when required.
18. EXCRETION
• Carbon dioxide is the major substance
excreted from the fetus.
• Other substances include bilirubin from
the breakdown of RBCs and small amounts
of urea and uric acid.
19. PROTECTION
• The placental membrane has a limited
barrier function.
• Certain antibodies, which the mother
possesses gets passed on to the fetus to
provide immunity for the baby for 3 months
after birth.
20. LIQUOR AMNII
• Amniotic fluid is also termed as liquor amnii, is
the fluid which distends the amniotic sac and
allows the growth and free movement of the
fetus.
• It equalizes the pressure and protects the fetus
from sudden vibrations.
• The fluid maintains constant temperature and
provides nutrients.
21. • In labor, it aids effacement of cervix and
dilation of os. As long as the membranes
remain intact, the amniotic fluid protects
the placenta and umblical cord from
pressure of uterine contractions.
22. CONSTITUENTS
• Amniotic fluid is a clear, pale straw colored fluid,
consisting of 99% water.
• The remaining 1% including food substances
and waste products.
• It contains fetal urine, respiratory tract
secretions and skin cells shed by the fetus, vernix
caseosa and lanugo.
23. SOURCE
• Amniotic fluid comes from both maternal
and fetal sources.
• Some fluid is exuded from maternal vessels
in the decidua and some from fetal vessels
in the placenta.
• Fetal urine also contributesto the volume
from the 10th week of gestation.
24. VOLUME
• At 38 weeks = 1 liter (1000ml)
• At term = 800 ml
• Polyhydramnios= Total amount more than
1500 ml
• Oligohydramnios = Total amount less than
300 ml
25. UMBLICAL CORD
• The umblical cord or funis extend from the
fetus to the placenta.
• It transmits the umblical blood vessels,
which are two arteries and one vein.
• These are enclosed by a gelatinous
substance known as wharton’s jelly.
26.
27. • Average Length = 50 cm
• Short Cord = Less than 40 cm
• Certain cords are longer and with longer cords,
problems can arise. It may become wrapped
round the neck or body of the fetus and become
knotted.
• A true knot occurs when the fetus has passed
through a loop in the cord and a real knot is
created.
28. • False knotting of the cord occurs when the cord
appears to be knotted, but instead has kinking of
the blood vessels within the cord or accumulation
of lumps of Wharton’s Jelly on the side of the
cord.
• True knotting is most common in two situations:
– Small fetus, long cord and large amount of amniotic
fluid.
– Multiple gestation within a single amnion.
29. ABNORMALITIES OF PLACENTA
• Larger and heavier than normal placentas are
seen with excessively large fetus, fetal syphilis
and erythroblastosis .
• Smaller and lighter than normal placentas may
occur with general systemic diseases or local
uterine conditions, which causes
undernourishment of placenta and intrauterine
growth retardation
30.
31. • The color of placental tissue is markedly lighter.
This is due to anemia or erythroblastosis.
• Excessive Infarct Formation: Infarction of
cotyledons due to maternal hypertension, pre
eclampsia or eclampsia.
• Edema of placenta: It is due to maternal heart
diseases, diabetes or nephritis.
• Syphilitic Placenta: Abnormally large, pale ,
yellow-grey placenta.
32. • Tumors are found in association with
prematurity and polyhydramnios. Perinatal
mortality and maternal hemorrhage are
both increased.
• Succenturiate Placenta/ Placenta
Succenturiate: One or more separate
accessory lobes in the membranes, a
variable distance away from the main
placental mass.
33.
34. • Extrachorial Placenta: A placental anomaly
observed on the fetal surface as a thick white
ring, which gives the impression that the central
portion is somewhat depressed.
– Placenta Circumvallata/ Circumvallate Placenta: The
ring situated at a variable distance between the
margin and center of the placenta.
– Placenta Marginata/ Circummarginate Placenta: The
ring is located at the edge or margin of the placenta.
35.
36.
37. ANOMALIES OF UMBILICAL
CORD
• Battledore Placenta: A variation in which
the umbilical cord is inserted at the edge or
margin of the placenta.
• Velamentous Insertion: The cord is
inserted into the membranes at some
distance from the edge of the placenta.
38.
39. • Short Cord: An absolute short cord is one ,
that is short in length.
• Long Cord: Long cord become looped
around the neck or body. It can also become
knotted and prolapsed in front of
presenting part.
• Cord Lopping
• Cord knotting.
