case_images: Placental examination of a stillbirth complicated with umbilical artery thrombosis. (A) A section of umbilical artery showing near complete occlusion by thrombus (black arrow) (Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), x40), inset shows normal umbilical cord with patent vessels for comparison. (B) Intraluminal thrombus (black arrow) at higher magnification (H&E, x200). (C) A section from full thickness of placenta revealed avascular villi (H&E, x100), inset shows normal placenta comprising chorionic villi with patent vasculature for comparison; and (D) associated stem vessel obliteration (H&E, x600).
