Abstract
Pedunculated chorangioma is extremely rare type of chorangioma. To the best of our knowledge, no case has been reported in Indian literature. We report one such rare case in a twenty two year old primi gravida who delivered a full term live female baby by lower section caesarian section (LSCS). Gross examination revealed a nodular mass attached to the placenta by a pedicle. Histopathological examination confirmed it as chorangioma. The clinicopathological and radiological feature of this rare entity is presented with a brief review of literature.
