Case report
A 24-year-old woman G4P4 was referred to our center at 31st week of her pregnancy with a diagnosis of fetal “hypoplastic left heart syndrome”.
Our examination revealed the following findings:
- Atresia of the tricuspid valve;
- Large ventricle septal defect;
- Interruption of the aortic arch (type C);
- Persistent left superior vena cava.
The case is interesting by uncommon combination of obstructive lesions of both the left and right parts of the heart.
Images 1, 2: The images represent a four-chamber view of the fetal heart with tricuspid atresia and ventricular septal defect (RV - right ventricle, LV - left ventricle, RA - right atrium, LA - left atrium, VSD- ventricular septal defect).
