Abstract
Umbilical vein varix is a rare entity, which can lead to in utero fetal death. We report the case of a women diagnosed with umbilical vein varix on the 31st week of amenorrhea. A close follow-up and the early diagnosis of umbilical vein thrombosis have allowed the patient to give birth to a healthy newborn on the 34th week of amenorrhea. Improved ultrasound imaging as well as systematic study of fetal annexes lead to an early diagnosis of umbilical vein abnormalities. This allows a close follow-up and an early diagnosis of fetal life-threatening complications.
