Abstract
AbstractA 28-year-old primigravida was referred at 24 weeks of gestation for growth scan. Ultrasound revealed an ovoid anechoic intra-abdominal structure. Color Doppler showed its continuity with umbilical vein and venous flow within it. A diagnosis of umbilical vein varix was made. Thereafter, the fetus was monitored at two weekly intervals. Due to increase in size of varix and development of echoes, an elective cesarean section was performed at 34 weeks. The baby cried at birth with a normal postnatal outcome.
