Placental chorangiomas: Diagnostic challenges and contemporary approaches to fetal care
Abstract Placental chorangiomas are the most common benign tumors of the placenta. Although most are small and asymptomatic lesions, giant chorangiomas are associated with an increased risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Therefore, in those affected by giant placental chorangioma, early diagnosis and intensive fetal monitoring are indicated to
