. This study presents four cases of fetal softtissue malformations diagnosed during pregnancy by ultrasonic scanning and amniography. The series comprises two fetal teratomas, one case of fetal ascites, and one case of a partial mole with coexistent fetus. Diagnostic and differential diagnostic problems are illustrated by a fifth case where the final diagnosis was a big maternal ovarian cyst‐adenoma coexistent with a normal fetus.
