Resumo: |
Preeclampsia (PE) is a specific syndrome of human pregnancy, characterized by the onset of hypertension and proteinuria after the 20th week of gestation. It is accepted that this disease originates in the placenta, probably due to factors involved in its formation and development. The objectives of the present study were: 1) To evaluate the histopathology of placental lesions in pregnant women with PE and in normotensive pregnant women; 2) To compare the frequency of newborns with intrauterine growth restriction among the groups of pregnant women studied. One hundred and forty pregnant women were evaluated, of whom 20 were normotensive and 120 were preeclamptic. Pregnant women with PE were classified according to the appearance of clinical manifestations in early-onset PE (<34 weeks of gestation - n = 40) and late-onset PE (≥ 34 weeks gestation - n = 80). A fragment of placenta was obtained immediately after delivery and prepared for histopathological analysis. Placental sections of 4m were placed on a slide for hematoxylin - eosin (HE) staining. Histological examination of placentas showed that the most frequently alterations found in patients with PE were increase villous with syncytial knots, infarction, increased fibrin deposits and distal villi hypoplasia. Placenta of pregnant women with early-onset PE showed higher percentage of villous with syncytial knots for gestation age compared with late-onset PE and normotensive pregnant women. Infarct and distal villi hypoplasia were more frequent in placenta of pregnant women with PE, whereas fibrin deposits were significantly increased in women with early-onset PE than in late-onset PE. Moreover, the percentage of newborns with intrauterine growth restriction was higher (37.8%) in patients with early–onset PE than in late-onset PE (14.3%). Together the results show that pregnant women with early-onset PE showed placentas with higher percentage of lesions and newborns with ... |
