The Possibilities of Intrauterine Correction of Chorioangioma

Aim. To present the experience of using laser vascular coagulation for the treatment of non-immune hydrops fetalis associated with placental chorioangioma. Key points. A series of clinical cases of pregnant women with placental chorioangioma and non-immune hydrops fetalis with varying pregnancy outcomes is described. The experience of managing this complication through intrauterine intervention — laser vascular coagulation — is demonstrated. Conclusion. Timely surgical treatment with intrauterine laser coagulation of vessels supplying the chorioangioma can resolve fetal hydrops and enable subsequent term delivery. Keywords: chorioangioma, non-immune hydrops, laser vascular coagulation.
