    Author: Vuckovic N, Vuckovic D, Grujic Z, Solajic N.
    Journal: Fetal Pediatr Pathol; 2011; 30(6):370-4. PubMed ID: 21843054.
    Abstract:
    A 21-year-old patient, in her first and regularly controlled uneventful pregnancy, was admitted to hospital due to lower leg edema, hypertension, proteinuria, and weight gain. Fetal death occurred the next day and a female nonhydropic fetus, 40 cm CH, 1460 grams, at 29-week gestation was delivered. An autopsy showed no visible gross abnormalities except in the heart. The heart was enlarged, with five intramural and subendocardial nodules, 0.3 to 1 cm in size, three in the left ventricular free wall, and one in the right ventricle and right atrium, sharply demarcated, reddish-gray, moderately firm, with the typical appearance of rhabdomyoma.
