Popis: |
Placental chorioangiomas are relatively common benign placental tumors occurring with an incidence of approximately 1% of histologically studied placentas. However, they show clinical manifestations in very rare pregnancies usually at a median gestational age of 28 weeks. Our report presents an interesting and rare case of severe hydramnios with consequent preterm labor and delivery in the second trimester leading to neonatal death due to placental chorioangioma. An earlier diagnosis could have led to closer monitoring and prevention of the development of severe hydramnios with resultant preterm labor. |
