[Chorioangioma of the placenta. Echographic, radiologic and anatomo-pathologic correlations].

Chorangioma, one of the most frequent placental tumors, is associated with an important perinatal morbidity and mortality. We describe the case of a pregnant woman in whom this tumor was diagnosed during a routine obstetric investigation. The originality of our report is a strong and clear correlation between echographic, radiologic and histopathological findings. To avoid its obstetric and perinatal dramatic complications, we review the main echographic patterns allowing an early diagnosis of chorangioma.
