[Feto-placental non-immunological anasarca].
Two clinical cases of fetal hydrops are discussed: one of them was caused by diffuse lymphangiectasis and the other was idiopathic. A review of recent literature regarding the management of non-immunological hydrops is presented and gives hope for a new therapeutic approach to fetal hydrops especially in cases of chylothorax. However the mortality remains extremely high because of lung hypoplasia.
