Hemangioma of the umbilical cord.
A case of intrauterine fetal death with a hemangioma and pseudocysts in the umbilical cord is presented. The clinical significance of these rare lesions is not entirely clarified, but of the 20 fully documented cases of umbilical cord hemangiomas, including the present case, only nine were found with live and completely normal infants.
