Do All Cases of Vasa Previa Need Cesarean Delivery? A case Report and Review of the Literatures

چکیده
Vasa previa (VP) is defined as fetal vessels unsupported by either placenta or umbilical cord coursing within the membranes in close proximity to the internal cervical os [1]. The membranous fetal vessels can either lead from the placenta to a velamentous cord insertion (type 1) or connect the main bulk of the placenta to a succenturiate lobe (type 2) [2]. The localization of the membranous fetal vessels can be classified as overlying (located directly over the internal os) or low-lying (located apart from the internal os but in front of the fetal presenting part) [3].
