Pseudocyst of the umbilical cord with mucoid degeneration of Wharton's jelly.
The perinatal findings of a pregnancy complicated by an umbilical cord abnormality associated with mucoid degeneration of Wharton's jelly are presented. Serial ultrasound examinations were not performed because the patient did not visit our outpatient department regularly. The umbilical cord cyst was not detected on ultrasound until delivery.
