Summary The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between assisted reproductive technology procedures, the morphology of the basal plate of placentas, and amount of bleeding in deliveries. Fifty-five whole placentas (fresh-embryo transfer in the in vitro fertilization cycle [n...
