✦ Synopsis

Prior to the age of invasive fetal procedures, spontaneous hematomas of the umbilical cord were extremely rare events. Seventeen of the 36 cases (47%) of umbilical cord hematomas reported in the world literature resulted in fetal demise.' Postpartum examination of the cord and placenta in these cases revealed a venous source of bleeding. The following is a presentation of noniatrogenic umbilical cord hematoma in a living fetus diagnosed with prenatal ultrasound. A review of the literature failed to identify a previously described case in a viable fetus. We present our sonographic data and clinical management in a fetus with a prenatally diagnosed hematoma of the umbilical cord.

Prenatal diagnosis of severe hypophosphatasia by mutation analysis of the tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) gene is reliable and mostly informative. However, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assay of CVS may be a useful complementary and independent method, especially when a mutation is un
