DIAZ HERRERA, Jorge et al. Velamentous cord insertion and variable deceleration of fetal heart rate monitoring. Rev Med Hered [online]. 2013, vol.24, n.3, pp.222-225. ISSN 1729-214X.

Velamentous cord insertion is an unusual condition, Wharton´s gelly protection is absent in this entity. We report a patient admitted with a presumptive diagnosis of chorioamnionitis that presented variable deceleration of fetal heart rate. A cesarean section was performed despite of not being in labor and having intact membranes. A velamentous cord insertion was confirmed.

Palavras-chave : Umbilical cord; velamentous cord insertion; variable deceleration.
