Summary: Parts of the chorionic tree, villous stems and their
branches(d), terminal villi (r) and intervillous spaces (i) have
beenstereologically analysed in five term human placents. The totalvalues
of the mentioned components have been calculated on thebasis of macroscopic
measurements of placental weight (Mp) andvolume (Vp) and stereological
measurements of the volume density.Statistically significant differences
between the volume densityof chorionic stems and their branches and
terminal villi (P<0.01)have been found out, what also applies to their
total volumes(P<0.02) as well as to their masses (P<0.01). Objectivity
ofintervillous space measuring has been discussed.

Summary: The ionvestigations were carried out to attempt to define
andanalyze various quantitative structural parameters ofsyncytiotrophoblast
in human term placenta, especially of itsfunctionally active parts, that is
alpha and beta zones. Theresults demonstrated the following: The
arrangement of alpha andbeta zones in the placenta as a whole is even and
regionallyindependent. Beta zones prevail quantitatively. Alpha zones
makeup only 8% of the total volume, 18% of the total surface and 39%of the
thickness of beta zones. Sexual dimorphism is shown by asignificantly
higher volume density (P<0.002), total volume(P<0.05) and surface density
(P<0.025) of alpha zones inplacentas of female newborn. The fetoplacental
index is higher inmale newborns. During the tenth lunar month the structure
ofsyncytiotrophoblast is change. Between the 38th and 39th week thevolume
and surface densities of alpha zones are significantlyhigher (P<0.01), and
in the 40th week the volume density andtotal volume of beta zones prevail
significantly (P<0.01).

Summary: According to the literature, there are still some
controversiesabout parathyroid glands such as the stromal fat
content.Besides, in our circles no attention has been paid to
morphologicresearches into these glands. This has encouraged
investigationinto the relationship between stromal fat and parenchyme
withinthe glands of both sexes by working out the volume density
ofmonitored parameters. The results show statistically significantlower
volume density values in male patients fat cells then infemale ones and
vice versa when the volume density of parenchymecells is concerned.

Summary: A rare case of an intracranially located supernumerary
tooth wasdescribed, observed over a period of 14 years, where movement
wasestablished laterally in relation to the referent Carthesiancoordinate
system, down and forward with rotation around theanteroposterior axis.
During skull growth, the skull base anglechanged by 20 degrees, but this
movement only affected the changein tooth position slightly. During the
observation period, nofurther changes in the neurological findings were
observed.

Summary: The increase of fetal weight during the tenth lunar month
isaccompanied neither by the growth of placental parenchyma nor bysurface
enlargement of placental membrane, the main structureengaged in
fetomaternal exchange. The placental developmentcompleted till the 36th
week is followed by the period ofmaturation. Morphological, biochemical and
physiologicalinvestigations show that the exchange of substances per gram
ofplacental weight is more effective during this period. The aim ofthis
research is to analyse volumetrically the structuralcomponents of placental
parenchyma and to compare them during thetwo periods of the tenth lunar
month separately: from the 38th to39th week (12 placentas) and in the 40th
week pregnancy (11placentas). Values obtained by macroscopic measuring of
newborn,sweight, placental weight and volume show the increase in thesecond
period, though the differences are not significant. Valuesof volume density
and total volume of terminal villi, theirmesenchyma and its blood
capillaries did not differ significantlyin the two investigated periods. In
syncytiotrophoblast thevolume share of alpha zone is significantly higher
in the periodfrom the 38th to 39th week while the volume share and the
totalvolume of beta zones are significantly higher in the 40th
week(P<0.01). The results of our research show that during the periodof
maturation the majority of structural components of placentalparenchyma
does not change essentialy. On the contrary, duringthis period further
differentiation of syncytiotrophoblast isstated with regard to alpha and
beta zones as components involvedinto fetomaternal exchange. We consider
these structural changesas quantitative manifestation of the maturation of
placentalmembrane.

Summary: At the time of intensive progressive growth of fetus,
during the10th lunar month, placenta does not grow any more.
Themorphological, biochemical and physiological indicators suggestthat
placenta functionally makes up for this disproportion bymore effective
feto-maternal exchange. The aim of this researchis to analyse
histologically the placental parenchyma and comparestereologically the size
of surfaces engaged in fetomaternalexchange during two periods of the 10th
lunar month separately:from the 38th to 39th week (12 placentas) and in the
40th week(11 placentas). The results show that during maturation
(betweenthe two periods observed) the values of macroscopic measures inthe
newborn and placenta as well as quantitative parameters
ofparenchyma(surface density and total surface of terminal villi,mesenchyma
and blood capillaries) do not change significantly.The surface density of
alpha zones is significantly higherbetween the 38th and 39th week (P<0.01).
These quantitative morphological parameters support the opinion that in the
10thlunar month there is no relevant growth of structural componentsof
placental parenchyma. On the contrary, differentiation ofplacental barrier
expressed by the enlarged surface of alphazones affirms the assumption of
functionally increasedpermeability in transcellular transport.

Summary: During pregnancy the placenta becomes adapted to
fetomaternalexchange. In the course of the last quarter of pregnancy
bloodcapillary loops grow into stroma of intermediary chorionic villiand
terminal villi grow out. Their main structural characteristicare dilated
blood capillaries located beneath a considerablyattenuated
syncytiotrophoblast. These changes manifest the finalformation of layers of
placental barrier, structurally known asalpha zones or plaque-epithelial.
The thickness of placentalbarrier, the size of the surface of trophoblast
and the size ofblood vessels are main structural components
considerablyinfluencing the intensity of diffusion through
placentalmembrane. Histological slices in human term placenta wereanalysed
stereologically. We have compared the results obtainedduring the two
periods of the 10th lunar month of pregnancy: thefirst period from the 38th
to 39th week (12 placentas) and thesecond period is the fortieth week (11
placentas). We have statedthat in the first period the surface density of
the totalsyncytiotrophoblast (P<0.025) and its specially
differentiatedareas, alpha zones, (P<0.05) is significantly higher than in
thesecond period. The total surfaces of these structures have provedto be
similar, but the differences have not been significant. Thearithmetic
thickness of the total trophoblast is significantlyhigher (P<0.005) in the
second group. The final 4 weeks ofpregnancy are considered as a period of
"placental functionalmaturation". Consequently, the syncytial nature of
trophoblastenables its fast structural adaptation to various qualitative
andquantitative needs of fetomaternal exchange. The enlarged surfaceof
syncytiotrophoblast has been morphologically andquantitatively stated.
Particularly, its differentiated alphazone manifests a more intensive
diffusion in fetomaternalexchange in the first half of the 10th lunar
month.

Summary: The chronic compartment syndrome (CCS) is an exercise -
induced condition characterized by a relative in adequancy of
musculofascial compartment size producing chronic or recurring pain. Most
cases of CCS involve the lower leg of athletes (competitive and marathon
runners). There is a chronic elevation of pressure within the compartment
(30 to 35 mmHg) due to fascia that is unyielding either through thickness
or tensile strength. A compartment is too small and fascia is inelastic to
prevent chronic elevation of intracompartmental pressure and acute muscle
volume increases associated with exercise. Increased intramuscular pressure
during exercise impedes blood flow and function of the tissues within the
compartment. Experimental works to date investigate the effects of acute
ischemia and acute compartment syndrome. Much less is known regarding the
particulars of chronic intermittent ischemia and tissue effects on muscle
and fascia. The aim of this research was to examine the ultrastructural
characteristics and quantitative changes of soft tissues within the
compartment of lower leg of an active athlete with CCS which was surgically
treated. The electronmicroscopic and stereologic analyses of the tibialis
posterior muscle were made separately for symptomatic and contralateral
(control) lower leg. The muscle fasciculus in the CCS had significantly
lower volume density of connective tissue and numerical density of muscle
fibres (P<0.0005). The average diameter and cross-sectional area of muscle
fibres were significantly increased over those in the control compartment
(P<0.0005). The electronmicroscopic investigations of muscle fibres in CCS
have showen an increase in mitochondrial number as well as quantity of
sarcoplasm and decrease in the length of the sarcomere. Our quantitative
results and ultrastructural investigations of the tibial posterior muscle
in CCS demonstrate a significant muscle hypertrophy consistent with chronic
ischemia and ischemic injury of uncertain reversibility.

Summary: Chronic compartment syndrome (CCS) is one of the causes of
recurrent pain induced by exercise in the lower leg (competitive runners,
long distance runners, keen joggers). During sports activity the muscle
volume increases but if there is a noncompliant fascia this will result in
an abnormally increased intracompartmental pressure. CCS is a common
problem in athletes and the aim of this research was to examine the
morphologic characteristics and quantitative changes of soft tissues within
the compartment of lower leg. The morphologic and stereologic analyses of
m.tibialis posterior were made separately for healthy and ill lower leg of
athlete with CCS. In the compartment syndrome we have stated the volume
density of muscle fibers is significantly higher (P<0.0005). The numerical
density of muscle fibers and volume density of connective tissue are
significantly lower (P<0.0005) than in the compartment of healthy lower
leg. These quantitative results demonstrate a serious damages of all
intracompartmental soft tissues which had resulted from the chronically
elevated compartment pressures.

Summary: In the pathological and obstetrical literature very little
attention has been paid to the umbilical cord. The placental examination
which should be done for all derivatives concerns also the description of
umbilical cord an mode of its insertion. The site of cord insertion is
variable in human placenta. It can be central, eccentric, marginal or
velamentous relative to the chorionic plate. While the eccentric cord
insertion are associated with multiple gestations, the marginal and
velamentous are due to the increased incidence of abortion, premature
labour, neonatal asphyxia or congenital malformation. The aim of our
investigation was to examine whather variations of cord insertions in
normal human placentae coincide with differences in neonatal and placental
factors (placental and newborn,s weight, placental index and volume) and
placental compartment volumes (absolute volume of intervillous space,
chorionic villi and their compartments: alpha and beta zones of
trophoblast, mesenchyma and blood vessels). Placental compartment volumes
were estimated histologically by stereological methods in 30 placentae and
statistically analysed by one - way ANOVA. The results indicate: 1.
Placentae with eccentric cord insertion have the greatest placental weight
(497.89+22.33) g and volume (474.18+21.27) cm3. The greatest volume was
estimated for chorionic villi (329.30+17.66) cm3, their alpha zones
(7.01+1.36) cm3 and blood vessels (68.23+10.15) cm3. 2. Placentae with
marginal cord insertion have the smallest placental weight (474.43+48.01) g
and volume (451.84+45.72) cm3. The newborn,s weight in this group of
placentae is the greatest (3685.71+264.64) g. Chorionic villi have the
smallest volume (300.81+30.98) cm3 but the greatest volume of beta zones,
places of metabolic processes (82.80+9.45) cm3. 3. The newborn,s weight in
the group with central cord insertion was the smallest (3553.93+107.84) g
as like as the volume of villous beta zones (76.88+5.88) cm3. These results
suggest that the placental compartment volumes differ in relation to the
mode of umbilical cord insertion. The lack of significant differences is
probably the result of sample sizes.
