Clinical History
A 39 year old G1P0 woman was admitted for induction of labor due to chronic hypertension at term. A 3200 gram female infant was born after vacuum-assisted vaginal delivery. The placenta required manual removal. The 282 gram placenta appeared disrupted and possibly incomplete. The submitted slide is a section from the placenta.
