A complementary approach in prenatal diagnosis
The Embryo & Fetal Pathology Unit conducts the study of abortive fetal tissues, placentas, and fetal autopsies. The anatomopathological evaluation of these cases requires highly specialized training for the recognition of alterations in different tissues, aiming for precise diagnosis, ranging from congenital disorders to changes associated with maternal and placental pathology.
