Help I’m Trapped Inside A Science Beaker!

This is a drawing from a lecture today. Actually a very good lecture and not just because we got a kick out of the drawing. Any guesses as to what condition is being…crudely…illustrated?

  1. Either placenta accreta/increta/percreta or variable decels from an umbilical chalk plug.

  2. Not bad guesses considering the drawing. It is supposed to be a velamentous cord and vasa previa with the vessels crossing the internal os and blocking the kid’s exit.

    Good luck on Step 1.

  3. Nice post
