Implication

Supports feasibility of immediate intervention in critical neonatal aortic stenosis; hypothesis-generating for fetal echocardiography-guided multidisciplinary protocols.

Structured PICO

P
Population
1 fetus at 35 weeks gestation diagnosed with critical aortic valve stenosis
I
Intervention
Prenatal diagnosis via fetal echocardiography followed by multidisciplinary postnatal management including emergency aortic valvotomy at 12 hours of age
O
Outcome
Successful treatment of severe congenital heart disease

Fetal echocardiography combined with a multidisciplinary postnatal approach enables successful early intervention for severe congenital heart disease such as critical aortic stenosis.
