The placenta is a transitory organ indispensable for normal fetal maturation and growth. Recognition of abnormal placental variants is important in clinical practice, and a broader understanding of the significance of placental variants would help clinicians better manage affected pregnancies. Increased thickness of the placenta is reported to be a nonspecific finding but it is associated with many maternal and fetal abnormalities, including preeclampsia and abnormal fetal growth. In this review, we address the questions regarding the characteristics of placenta thickness and the relationship between thickened placenta and poor pregnancy outcomes.
胎盘是一个对于正常胎儿成熟和生长不可或缺的临时性器官。在临床实践中，识别异常的胎盘变异是很重要的，而更广泛地了解胎盘变异的意义将有助于临床医生更好地管理受影响的妊娠。胎盘增厚被报道为一种非特异性发现，但它与许多母体和胎儿异常有关，包括子痫前期和胎儿生长异常。在这篇综述中，我们探讨了胎盘厚度的特征以及增厚的胎盘与不良妊娠结局之间的关系。
