Abstract

Cystic masses are among the most common sonographically detectable abnormalities of the umbilical cord. Umbilical cord cysts have been described in association with fetal anomalies, with chromosomal or structural defects being found in over 20% of cases. We present a case of umbilical cord cyst associated with fetal death at 29 weeks of gestation with a brief review of literatures.
