A RARE PLACENTAL VASCULAR TUMOR

UTHRA PRIYADARSHINI D

Abstract


Chorangioma, the commonest benign non-trophoblastic tumor which is even asymptomatic when small can be distressing when it is associated with atypical cellular features. In our case, the pregnancy was complicated by chorangioma with polyhydramnios and preterm labour. Post-delivery, histopathological examination of the placenta showed chorangioma with atypical cellular changes. The follow up of the mother was normal. Thus atypical cellular chorangioma is a histological diagnosis and it is managed same as chorangioma except for follow-up.
