“…In our review, the incidence of BWS was 19%, close to the 23% risk reported in the literature. There are multiple case reports in the literature describing the co‐existence of PMD with fetal hepatic mesenchymal tumors, suggesting a common pathogenetic origin for the two anomalies.

“…Table 2 shows a comparison of outcomes of reported cases. Of the eight cases found in the literature, there were two fetal demises, one neonatal death, four postnatal surgically resections (two immediately postnatal, one at 3 months and one at 11 months of age), and one had serial postnatal percutaneous decompression with full resolution [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. HMH should always be considered a likely diagnosis in cases of PMD with an associated abdominal mass seen antenatally on ultrasonography.…”

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is characterized by placentomegaly and grapelike vesicles resembling a partial molar pregnancy and in most cases, a phenotypically normal fetus. Hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma (HMH) is a benign hamartomatous proliferation of mesenchymal liver tissue. PMD has been associated with HMH. Although rare, in combination, it is known to carry a poorer prognosis than in fetuses without structural abnormalities. There are only a few reported cases of PMD and associated HMH with varying management strategies and outcomes, precluding ascertainment of the most appropriate treatment plan. We present a case of PMD with associated cystic HMH resulting in fetal death. We also reviewed the published literature on this issue and explored possible management strategies to prevent adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes.

“…Placental mesenchymal dysplasia may be associated with chromosomal abnormalities such as trisomy 13, Klinefelter syndrome, triploidy and Xp deletion [6,7]. Rare cases of fetal congenital adrenal hyperplasia, vascular hamartoma, and hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma have been described [8].…”

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a relatively recently recognized, rare placental vascular anomaly characterized by placentomegaly and grapelike vesicles that may coexist with a normal fetus. Ultrasonography performed at 16 weeks of gestation revealed multiple cysts in the placenta along with a morphologically normal fetus. At 24 weeks of gestational age, severe preeclampsia symptoms were seen. And sonographically intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and oligohydroamnios were noted. Based on the diagnosis of severe preeclampsia, termination of pregnancy was done. After termination, histopathologic examination of the placenta showed numerous grape-like cystic vesicles throughout the entire placenta and absence of trophoblastic proliferation and pseudoinclusions. We have described a pregnancy complicated with PMD associated with mid-trimester severe preeclampsia, IUGR and oligohydroamnios.
