A Case of Coccygeal Lymphangioma Diagnosed by Ultrasonography at 34 Weeks Gestation
Abstract
-
Fetal lymphangioma is a congenital malformation of the fetal lymphatic system resulting from the jugular-lymphatic obstruction sequence, which appears as a single or multiloculated fluid-filled cavity mainly in the nuchal region and is easily diagnosed by ultrasonography in antenatal period. We report a case of coccygeal lymphangioma which was diagnosed by ultrasonography at 34 weeks, gestation and was delivered by cesarian section at 36 weeks, gestation with a brief review of literatures.
