“…Most of the extracranial masses detected prenatally are either encephalocele or menigocele (Romero et a/., 1988). However, in the differential diagnosis one should include cystic hygroma, scalp oedema, teratoma, and mesenchymal sarcoma (Grundy et al, 1985;Fiske and Filly, 1982;Nicolini et al, 1983).…”

Encephalocele is the most common cause of occipital midline extracranial mass associated with hydrocephalus. A case is presented where an occipital extracranial mass associated with hydrocephalus which was detected on second-trimester ultrasound examination turned out to be a haemangioma, a relatively benign lesion. We suggest that haemangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of extracranial masses detected prenatally.

“…1 Grundy et al described a hemangioma presenting as a cystic mass in the fetal neck which had a lymphangiomatous c:omponent and was observed in a fetus with other severe congenital anomalies. 2 A hemangioma of similar size and location to the one we report was described by Meizner et al It measured 5 X 6 cm and occurred in an otherwise normal fetus which died in utero at 32 weeks of 525…”

“…The typical ultrasound appearance of hemangioma is of an echogenic soft tissue mass. Hypoechogenic areas may be present within the mass and calcification within the mass has also been reported 4,5,10 . Color Doppler sonography is commonly used to evaluate the vascularity of the lesion 5± 9,11 with CPA Doppler enabling small vessels with slow flow to be visualized.…”

A case of an isolated cranio-facial vascular anomaly, extending from the left parietal bone to the lateral margin of the omolateral orbit is presented. Detection and differential diagnosis of fetal hemangioma is important for a variety of reasons. First, it allows the prenatal growth of the mass to be evaluated. Second, it enables appropriate arrangements for delivery to be made including its timing and selection of the appropriate clinical team necessary to support the neonate. After birth these cranio-facial anomalies can regress spontaneously, but plastic surgery is often necessary.
