Chorangioma of the Placenta - A Rare Placental Cause of Fetal High Output Cardiac Failure,Chorioangiom der Plazenta – eine seltene Ursache fetaler High-Output-Herzinsuffizienz

Chorangiomas of the placenta, benign tumors of chorionic tissue, are a rare placental cause of adverse fetal and maternal outcomes. We describe the case of a large placental chorangioma leading to polyhydramnios as well as consecutive preterm birth and high output cardiac failure of the newborn. Derived from a literature review, we suggest instructions for diagnosis and optimal prenatal care in case of a a suspected placental chorangioma.
