Prenatal diagnosis of fetal transposition of the great arteries.
A 31-year-old woman was referred for fetal cardiac assessment at 30 weeks of gestation because of fetal arrhythmia and inadequate visualization of the 4-chamber heart at another hospital. Routine scanning demonstrated normal growth, no anomalies, and a normal 4-chamber view; however, the great vessels were inadequately evaluated. Detailed fetal echocardiography was then performed with sequentia...
متن کاملEffect of prenatal diagnosis on outcomes in D-transposition of the great arteries.
BACKGROUND By decreasing preoperative morbidity, prenatal diagnosis could improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants with critical congenital heart disease. We explored the impact of prenatal diagnosis on perinatal and perioperative variables and on outcomes at 1 year of age. METHODS We analyzed a database of children enrolled in prospective studies on surgical support techniques from 198...
متن کاملCongenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: clues for prenatal diagnosis.
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is an uncommon cardiac defect characterized by the atria connecting with the anatomically discordant ventricles and the ventricles connecting with discordant and transposed great arteries. Parallel vessels are evident in corrected TGA, but as this sign is also present in complete TGA, a heart anomaly requiring major cardiac surg...
متن کاملTransposition of the great arteries
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA), also referred to as complete transposition, is a congenital cardiac malformation characterised by atrioventricular concordance and ventriculoarterial (VA) discordance. The incidence is estimated at 1 in 3,500-5,000 live births, with a male-to-female ratio 1.5 to 3.2:1. In 50% of cases, the VA discordance is an isolated finding. In 10% of cases, TGA is ...
متن کاملTransposition of the great arteries.
Many patients with ventriculoarterial discordance have survived to adulthood. Those with complete transposition of the great arteries have often had an atrial switch procedure (Mustard or Senning operation) performed, which leaves the morphological right ventricle (RV) supporting the systemic circulation. RV failure and tricuspid regurgitation are common. Some patients may ultimately require ca...
