Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chorioangioma is a relatively common benign tumour of placenta arising from chorionic tissue. The incidence of it is very rare around 0.6%. These often remain unnoticed as they are rarely more than 5 cm. CASE REPORT We describe a case with large chorioangioma of placenta that had a poor pregnancy outcome. CONCLUSION Chorioangioma of placenta is a rare problem associated with potentially serious foetal risk, hence constant surveillance during pregnancy is required.
