Abstract

Herein, we report two recent cases of fetal heman- giomatosis at our center (IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero- Universitaria di Bologna, Bologna, Italy) that demon- strate how genetics may be used to guide reproductive counseling, even if a conclusive diagnosis may be chal- lenging. Written informed consent was obtained in both cases.
