Abstract
Introduction: The anatomic structure of Hyrtl's anastomosis is of a large variability. The aim of this study is to investigate the occurrence and types of the anastomoses in the umbilical arteries of pregnancy-induced hypertension. Anastomosis between the two umbilical arteries has been described earlier but no comparative morphology between the normotensive and pregnancy-induced hypertension has been carried out. Method: A routine dissection method has been performed to demonstrate the occurrence of the anastomosis. Result: In an attempt to verify the presence and type of Hyrtl anastomosis, 34 transverse type and 22 oblique were more common. A significant difference was observed between the normotensive and pregnancy-induced hypertension cases, whereas the transverse type of anastomosis was mostly observed in pregnancy-induced hypertension.
