[Velamentous insertion--epidemiology and clinical aspects of the pathological insertion of the umbilical cord].
Among 9460 birth an incidence of 1.6% of velamentous insertion of the umbilical cord is recorded and the clinical relevance of this anomaly is examined. Apart from statistical confirmation of well-known connections between membranous insertion of the umbilical cord on the one hand, and malformations, multiple pregnancies and bleeding sub partu on the other hand, the present investigation is mainly concerned with premature births and/or placental insufficiency in the case of velamentous insertion of the umbilical cord, which is associated with "late premature births" in the 35th, 36th and 37th week of pregnancy as characteristic finding.
