description: Poor neonatal outcomes, including low birth weight (LBW), poor APGAR scores, more NICU hospitalizations, and a higher chance to develop Pre-Eclampsia, IUGR, and Oligo Hydramnios, are all linked to thin placental thickness. While both thin and thick placentae are connected to a greater prevalence of C-sections, thick placentae are linked with a greater possibility of developing GDM and an increase in NICU hospitalizations. Objective of this research was to investigate the association between placental thickness as measured by ultrasonography in the third trimester and foetal outcome, including the relationship between placental histopathology and placental thickness. investigate the link among placental thickness, foetal outcome, and placental histology. Most newborns had fibrinoid necrosis and calcifications. Babies with Macrosomia and IUGR, respectively, were more likely to develop Syncytial knots and thickening of the vessel wall. Patients with normal placenta thickness at 36 weeks' gestation experienced fewer difficulties than those with thin or thick placentas at the same time. The study emphasizes the value of evaluating placental thickness using ultrasound in the third trimester to detect high-risk pregnancies. The study also shows that aberrant foetal and neonatal events are linked to certain placental histological characteristics, like artery wall thickening and infarctions. RJPT All right reserved.
