Fetal and placental malignancies are rare complications during pregnancy, but when they occur they may present significant challenges for the perinatology team. Owing to their rarity, there is limited information on many of these entities, with much data derived from individual case reports or small case series. Prenatal diagnosis of these entities is rare and inconsistent, usually in the form of isolated case reports. In the majority of fetal tumors, prenatal features are those of a mass lesion, with or without other non-specific features of fetal compromise such as polyhydramnios, fetal hydrops or intrauterine death, the final diagnosis in most cases being based on postnatal pathological examination.Expectant management is almost always indicated antenatally, with serial ultrasound examinations performed to detect rapid enlargement, metastasis or secondary fetal complications, such as non-immune hydrops, which may require intervention. Delivery should be planned in a specialist center in conjunction with pediatric surgeons and oncologists to allow appropriate neonatal management. Placental malignancy is most commonly in the form of gestatational trophoblastic disease, which requires assessment and management in specialist centers.
