Özet: Placental tumours are classified into trophoblastic and nontrophoblastic tumours. Nontrphoblastic tumours are relatively rare which includes chorioangioma/placental hemangioma, placental teratoma, placental metastatis. Chorioangioma has a prevalence of 1% among other placental tumours. Giant chorioangioma is relatively rare. Chorioangioma may be associated with adverse fetal and maternal complications. Fetal complications may include intrauterine fetal growth retardation, fetal anemia, polyhydramnios and maternal complications may include pregnancy induced hypertension, antepartum hemorrhage, preterm labour. Untoward complications can be avoided by timely detection, appropriate follow up and management. We report a case of giant chorioangioma and its outcome.
