Background:

Chorioangiomas are benign tumors of the placenta.
Their incidence may be underestimated due to missed diagnoses of smaller lesions.

Purpose of the Study:

To present six cases of placental chorioangioma.
To review the literature on chorioangioma.
To highlight associated pregnancy complications and infant outcomes.

Main Methods:

Review of six clinical cases of chorioangioma.
Comprehensive literature review on placental chorioangiomas.

Main Results:

Chorioangiomas are more frequent than typically recognized.
Large chorioangiomas are associated with larger placentas.

Associated conditions include hydramnios, premature birth, and toxemia.

One case presented foci resembling hemangiopericytoma.

Conclusions:

Placental examination should be thorough to detect chorioangiomas.
Pregnancy complications like hydramnios, premature birth, and toxemia are linked to chorioangioma.
Infants born to mothers with chorioangioma require careful examination for congenital anomalies.
