[Prenatal diagnosis of fetal aortic stenosis with mitral insufficiency. Review of the ultrasound diagnosis and perinatal prognosis: a case report].

Prenatal diagnosis and postnatal management of critical aortic stenosis.

Fetal echocardiography has yet to have an impact on the treatment of congenital heart disease. Critical aortic valve stenosis was diagnosed by echocardiography before birth in a 35 week gestation fetus. The risks to the fetus and mother associated with prolonged rupture of membranes prompted their transport to a hospital with cardiac surgical and high-risk perinatal facilities. Prenatal and pos...

AORTO-LEFT VENTRICULAR TUNNEL. A CASE REPORT WITH AORTIC PRESSURE AND ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC FINDINGS

A seven-year-old girl with clinical diagnosis of aortic insufficiency underwent echocardiographic and hemodynamic evaluation and referred for surgery with the same diagnosis.

A Rare Case of Neonatal Birth with Congenital Bilateral Femoral Deficiency Undetected in Prenatal Ultrasound

Background:Prenatal ultrasound plays an important role in the early and accurate evaluation of the congenital skeletal and non-skeletal abnormalities of the fetus and is effective in predicting pregnancy outcomes. Congenital femoral deficiency (CFD) is a rare complicated and non-hereditary anomaly that includes the hypoplasia of a portion of the femoral bone with shortening the lower limb. Cas...
