Chorionic hematoma is the pooling of blood between the chorion, a membrane surrounding the embryo, and the uterine wall. [2] It occurs in about 3.1% of all pregnancies , [ 2 ] it is the most common sonographic abnormality and the most common cause of first trimester bleeding .
The chorion and amnion membranes are labelled in this depiction of a growing fetus in the uterus. The amniotic sac consists of two parts: The outer membrane is the chorion. It is closest to the mother and physically supports the much thinner amnion. The chorion is the last and outermost of the membranes that make up the amniotic sac. [13]
When spontaneous rupture of the amnion occurs early in the second trimester, the separation of amnion from chorion produces many small, thin strands that can become entangled within digits and toes. [10] [11] Later, as the fetus grows but the bands do not, the bands become constricting. This constriction reduces blood circulation, and hence ...
The trophoblast layer differentiates into amnion and the chorion, which then comprise the fetal membranes. [4] The amnion is the innermost layer and, therefore, contacts the amniotic fluid, the fetus and the umbilical cord. [5] The internal pressure of the amniotic fluid causes the amnion to be passively attached to the chorion. [4]
In velamentous cord insertion, the vessels of the umbilical cord are improperly inserted in the chorioamniotic membrane, and hence the vessels traverse between the amnion and the chorion towards the placenta. [1] [11] Without Wharton's jelly protecting the vessels, the exposed vessels are susceptible to compression and rupture. [1] [9]

Circumvallate placenta is a rare condition affecting about 1-2% of pregnancies, in which the amnion and chorion fetal membranes essentially "double back" on the fetal side around the edges of the placenta. [1] After delivery, a circumvallate placenta has a thick ring of membranes on its fetal surface. [2]
