Magnetic resonance imaging of fetal vascular malformations.
Willemijn M KleinGeorgia PapaioannouPublished in: Pediatric radiology (2024)
Vascular anomalies develop during fetal life and can be detected on prenatal ultrasonography and fetal magnetic resonance imaging. Diagnosis of lymphatic, venous, and arteriovenous malformations, as well as congenital hemangiomas and other congenital vascular tumors, may be challenging. The benign vascular anomalies may be difficult to differentiate from malignancies with a similar appearance. In this manuscript, we present a succinct overview of the congenital vascular anomalies that may present in fetal or neonatal life.
