Abstract

Posteljica je organ koji osigurava optimalne uvjete za fiziološki tijek graviditeta.
Transrektalnom ultrazvučnom pretragom maternice možemo pratiti zdravstveni status
posteljice te rast i razvoj ploda kod gravidnih kobila. U ovom diplomskom radu naglasak je
stavljen na mjerenje debljine feto-placentarnog spoja, u kasnoj fazi graviditeta, kao parametra
koji može poslužiti za precizno praćenje tijeka gravidnosti i tako omogućiti ranu dijagnostiku
eventualnih patoloških procesa u gravidnosti. Mjerenje debljine feto-placentarnog spoja
visokoždrebnih kobila važan je prediktor pravilnog razvoja ploda u maternici i potrebno ga je
više koristiti u dijagnostici i prognostici ne samo problematičnih i rizičnih već i zdravih kobila,
a u svrhu pravovremene intervencije i očuvanja gravidnosti. Povećanje CTUP-a veće od 8 mm
između 271. i 300. dana, veće od 10 mm između 301. i 330. dana i veće od 12 mm nakon 330.
dana gravidnosti povezani su sa zatajenjem posteljice i prijetećim pobačajem. Mjere CTUP-a
također mogu biti povećane zbog nastale infekcije ili upale posteljice te kod odvajanja
membrana od endometrija.

Abstract (english)

The placenta is an organ that provides optimal conditions for the physiological
course of the pregnancy. With a transrectal ultrasound examination of the uterus, we can
monitor the placenta's health status and the fetus's growth and development in pregnant mares.
In this thesis, I emphasized the measurement of the thickness of the feto-placental junction, in
the late phase of pregnancy, as a parameter that can be used for precise monitoring of the course
of pregnancy and thus enable early diagnosis of possible pathological processes in pregnancy.
Measuring the thickness of the fetoplacental junction of high-foal mares is an important
predictor of proper development of the fetus in the womb and should be used more in the
diagnosis and prognosis of not only problematic and risky mares but also healthy mares, for
timely intervention and pregnancy preservation. CTUP increases greater than 8 mm between
days 271 and 300, greater than 10 mm between days 301 and 330, and greater than 12 mm after
day 330 of gestation are associated with placental abruption and threatened miscarriage. CTUP
measures can also be increased due to infection or inflammation of the placenta and separation
of the membranes from the endometrium.
