Popis: | T H E observation has been made1 and confirmed29 3 that pregnancy is associated with significant changes in the connective tissue of the human cervix. It has been suggested that probably all connective tissue structures of the body, and not only the cervix, undergo alteration and loss of tensile strength during pregnancy.4 This paper is concerned only with the vasculature, and is a preliminary study designed to determine whether specific gestational changes can be demonstrated by histological techniques. The literature dealing with such changes is not large, but an interesting and suggestive thread runs through it. In his excellent review of the contribution of vascular accidents to maternal mortality, Bryan9 reports between 10 and 20 per cent of all maternal |
