Non-immune hydrops fetalis associated with two umbilical cord hemangiomas and vascular malformation of the transverse mesocolon. Case report.

Umbilical cord hemangioma is a rare tumor that can be associated with significant fetal and perinatal complications. Although usually described as a single anomaly, sometimes these tumors are reported in association with other vascular lesions. We report an unusual case of simultaneous occurrence of two umbilical cord hemangiomas and vascular malformation of the transverse mesocolon in a stillborn fetus with hydrops. To our knowledge, this is the first report of two simultaneously occurring umbilical cord hemangiomas. Moreover, presence of associated vascular malformation of transverse mesocolon could support the hypothesis of underlying predisposition to the development of vascular tumors.
