| Résumé : | Prenatal diagnosis of cord defects by means of ultrasound examination is possible and highly accurate. Although this is a rare pathological finding, we report two cases in which umbilical cord pseudocysts were associated with trisomy 18. These observations underscore the need of umbilical blood sampling for establishing the karyotype in fetuses with such umbilical cord anomalies and the importance of careful examination of placentas and infants born with such defects. |
