Abstract
Vasa previa carries a significant risk for fetal exsanguination and de ath at the time of membrane rupture. The diagnosis is rarely made befo re the onset of vaginal bleeding. We report the prenatal diagnosis of vasa previa with transvaginal color Doppler flow imaging in an asympto matic patient with a succenturiate placenta.
