Abstract
This report describes two pregnancies complicated by hydramnios, fetal death and sacrococcygeal teratoma in the second trimester. In both cases the placenta was remarkably enlarged. It is postulated that the tumors behaved in the manner of A-V fistulas and produced forward failure in the fetus similar to what is occasionally seen with large chorangiomas.Keywords
