Sažetak
Annular placenta is an extremely rare morphological type
of human placenta. It is commonly related to placental
vessel abnormalities frequently causing antenatal and
postnatal hemorrhage and operative delivery. Gravida 4
para 1 had an uneventful course of pregnancy and normal
vaginal delivery followed by moderate postpartum hemorrhage.
Hemorrhage was found to be local in origin but
the placenta was annular in shape and the newborn was
delivered through one of the openings. Annular placenta
was not recognized before delivery. Its implantation site
was in the lower uterine segment but high enough to allow
the passage of the fetus through its annular defect and
vaginal birth. To our knowledge, this is a first report of annular
placenta ending in normal vaginal delivery.
