Isolated cases of placental morphological abnormalities are often reported; but lately there is an incidence of 9 % noteworthy. The placenta may have different abnormalities or alter complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. A case of a patient with velamentous cord insertion and bilobed placenta during a vaginal delivery at Ramón Gonzalez Coro Gynecobstetric Teaching Hospital is presented here. Perinatal outcomes, despite all the complications were favorable and the newborn presented a proper Apgar count at birth. Despite the few reported cases, the relationship between fetal delay and maternal hemorrhagic morbidity at delivery was confirmed.

Palabras clave : velamentous cord insertion; bilobata placenta; vasa previa; low fetal weight.
