[Intrauterine fetal death in furcate insertion of umbilical cord]
Fatal complications associated with abnormal umbilical cord insertions occupy 7.7-11.4% of all stillbirths and only 0.06% of all pregnancies. We report a rare abnormality of umbilical cord insertions (furcated insertion) associated with hemodynamic disorders and intrauterine death of the fetus.
