Abstract
Introduction: The placenta occupies an important place in science, medicine, and law; yet, it remains a difficult organ to explain and understand because of its unique characteristics. Methods and Materials: A descriptive observational study was carried out on placentas. Placental components were illustrated with diagrams and corresponding microphotographs were highlighted by immunohistochemical staining to identify cell-types and structures. Results: The placenta was diagrammatically demonstrated by dividing it into chorionic plate with umbilical cord, basal plate and placental disc. In highlighting the histological components, approximately 80 immunohistochemical preparations were taken into account Conclusion: Placental complexity continues to be the critical interface for maternal-fetal dialogue. Better educational methods are needed to explain the complex pathophysiology of this essential organ. Improving placental education is the key to attracting young researchers dedicated to this field.
