Second trimester low-lying placenta and in-vitro fertilization? Exclude vasa previa

Y Oyelese et al. J Matern Fetal Med. 2000 Nov-Dec.

Abstract

We report the prenatal diagnosis of vasa previa using transvaginal sonography and color Doppler. This case supports the previously reported association of vasa previa with second trimester low-lying placentas and in-vitro fertilization. Sonographic examination for vasa previa should be considered in pregnancies with low-lying placentas and those resulting from in-vitro fertilization.
