Microscopic features of the placenta, which are discovered only after preparation by the pathologist, are listed in Table 4–4, along with their associated maternal and neonatal clinical conditions. Finally, Table 4–5 summarizes the placental findings associated with acquired or genetic thrombophilia, and Table 4–6 lists the tests that should be performed for further investigation.
