Case Report (n=1)
This case demonstrates that endocardial fibroelastosis secondary to aortic stenosis can be diagnosed by ultrasound as early as 21 weeks of gestation.
Achiron et al. (1988) conducted a case report in Endocardial fibroelastosis secondary to aortic stenosis (n=1). Prenatal sonographic diagnosis was evaluated on Diagnosis of endocardial fibroelastosis. Prenatal sonographic diagnosis successfully identified endocardial fibroelastosis secondary to aortic stenosis at 21 weeks of gestation, which was subsequently confirmed pathologically.
