Placentation and the development of fetal membranes in dogs are currently studied extensively, since the knowledge of morphology of the placenta enables properly recognize pathological changes and its correlation with neonatal viability. We aimed to characterize morphologically and immunohistochemically placentas of bitches from eutocia and dystocia. For that 80 placentas were collected and classified according to the type of delivery into three experimental groups,GN (n = 40) placentas obtained from normal delivery, GC (n = 28) placentas obtained from cesarean section and GAUP (n = 12) placentas obtained from bitches with uterine atony. 1cm x 1cm pieces were cut from the region near the umbilical cord and stored in 10% buffered formalin for 48 hours following, were transferred to 70% alcohol, which remained until processing for histopathological and immunohistochemical study. In this research, areas of hemorrhage, necrosis, inflammation and calcification were observed in the placentas in all three groups. Hemorrhagic areas were identified in the placental parenchyma in all groups, without significant difference. The evident necrosis in the placenta maternal face was constant in the groups, we observe areas and spots of necrosis in the lamellar region in GC and GAUP, but those findings were not statistically significant when compared to GN. Inflammation was rarely observed in the GN and it was observed in a few samples in the GC, however it was predominant in samples from GAUP. Calcification spots were observed in GC and GAUP. In the studied groups, discrete alterations were observed when histological integrity of marginal hematomas was evaluated. In GN the immunostaining for vimentin proved to be intense and homogeneous throughout lamellar zone, however this was not observed in GC and GAUP, which presented immunostaining characterized by variation of intensity. For cytokeratin there was no difference between experimental groups. The RP...
