Placental chorioangioma is a limited non trophoblastic vascular tumour that may causes fetal complications as well as post-natal ones. We reported in here the first case of an in utero embolization of chorioangioma diagnosed at 22 W G with a post-natal diagnosis of neonatal multifocal hemangioma with a good outcome. The chorioangioma was embolized using GLUBRAN 2 ® (cyanolacrylate) a biologic surgical glue at 26 W G. Premature rupture of membrane occurred at 28 W G. A cesarean section at 32 W G was performed for retro placental hematoma. The neonate was 1400 g healthy girl with an anemia (hemoglobin 9.7 g/dl). After one month of life, the child met a neonatal multifocal hemangioma (skin and liver were involved) with superficial erosion of skin hemangiomas that required post-natal transfusions. We propose a literature review related to the various technics of in utero treatment of placental chorioangioma and the links with neonatal multifocal hemangiomatosis as well. The girl is now 7 year old and has a normal neurodevelopmental outcome.
