A pregnant woman, at 28 weeks' gestation, has been observed ultrasonographically. A complex mass arising from the umbilical cord was detected. Color Doppler imaging demonstrated the vascular nature of the mass and the strictly connection with the three umbilical vessels. Color Doppler ultrasound provides useful informations for a correct assessment of the masses arising from the umbilical cord.
