- Abstract
Chorioangioma is one of the most frequent benign neoplastic diseases of the placenta. Large chorioangioma is a rare primary placental tumor and usually measures greater than 5cm. A twenty-six-year-old Filipina primigravida was seen at 29 weeks of gestation. At 37 weeks of gestation, she was noted to have a large 8×8 cm placental chorioangioma by ultrasound. She underwent elective cesarean section and delivered a live baby girl with good Apgar score. Histopathology of the placenta confirmed the diagnosis of 14×13×4 cm chorioangioma. In this case, a large placental chorioangioma was found with good maternal and fetal outcome.
