Abstract
Tumours of the umbilical cord represent an exceedingly rare group of lesions and include teratoma and vascular lesions. Such vascular lesions have received different labels in the past including haemangioma and angiomyxoma, which are considered by some as variations of the same lesion. Presented here is a case of angiomyxoma of the umbilical cord including clinical and pathological findings, as well as a review of the available literature. This case review involves a 29-year-old, gravida 5 para 3, female who presented with umbilical cord mass detected on ultrasound at 23 weeks gestation.
