This report represents the first documentation of Ebstein's anomaly diagnosed in utero using real-time ultrasonic tomography.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports feasibility of prenatal Ebstein's anomaly detection; leaves open need for validation in larger prospective cohorts.
In utero real‐time ultrasonic tomography revealed malattachment of the tricuspid valve in two cases at 33 weeks of gestation. Enlargement of the right ventricle and atrium and a decrease in thickness of the right ventricular wall were also observed in one fetus while a small ventricle and enlargement of the right atrium were seen in the second fetus. This is the first documentation of Ebstein's anomaly diagnosed in utero.
