The Peripatetic Placenta

Abstract
Human placentograms were studied. In some cases a placenta, which at first lies low and encroaches on the incipient lower uterine segment, will move upwards towards the fundus and come to rest wholly in the upper uterine segment as gestation progresses. The mechanism of this movement and possible reasons why some placentae move and others do not are also discussed.
