Presence of Syncytial knots is one of the placental abnormalities, found in early pregnancy , can lead to an increased number in mature placenta and alter its function. A massive increase in the intensity of fetal monitoring and changes in the method of delivery including use of caesarean sections have not decreased the incidence of poor fetal outcome, leading to high risk in obstetrics. Cross sectional comparative study was carried at the dept. of Anatomy, Institute of Basic Medical Sciences (IBMS) and Dow Diagnostic Research and Reference Lab, Dow University of health sciences (DDRRL/DUHS), and cases were examined and identified for diabetes and hypertension during pregnancy. It was observed that the average Syncytial knots of 24.7 percent patients out of 150 were lying in the range 16-20 and 17.3 percent patient�??s average Syncytial knots was less or equal to 5, It was also noticed that majority of the patients who had average less than or equal to 5 belonged to the control group (i.e. 48%) and those who had average Syncytial knots 16-20 belonged to the hypertensive group (i.e. 44%) whereas, in diabetic group 38% patients had average Syncytial knots ranging from 11-15. In our study association was found in increased number of Syncytial knots and disease groups. A relative frequency of hypoxic changes and acute atherosis in the third trimester placentas from pregnancies complicated by the eclampsia /Preeclampsia was expected. Still in our part of the world reinforcement is.
