Demonstration of circular shunt in fetal Ebstein anomaly
Ebstein′s anomaly was diagnosed in a fetus at 24 weeks of gestation. There was significant cardiomegaly and severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). There was functional pulmonary atresia with severe pulmonary regurgitation (PR) and this was causing a ...

Circular shunt in a pulmonary artery to right atrial tunnel, an anomaly unreported so far
While aortico-right atrial tunnels with left to right shunt from aorta to right atrium are reported widely, pulmonary artery to right atrial tunnels have not been described so far. Such a tunnel will lead to a circular shunt with a recirculation of blood

Perinatal mortality remains high among fetuses diagnosed with Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve. The subgroup of patients with pulmonary valve regurgitation is at particularly high risk.

An unexpected circular shunt: Novel method to treat semilunar valve insufficiency in a single ventricle patient on mechanical circulatory support [PDF]
Severe semilunar valve insufficiency in single ventricle patients supported with mechanical circulatory support while awaiting transplant remains a complex clinical scenario with few favorable options for management.

Hemodynamic considerations for prenatal treatment of severe Ebstein anomaly with circular shunt based on two cases and review of the literature [PDF]
Prenatal severe Ebstein anomaly might be complicated by a circular shunt. In these cases, persistently elevated right atrial and venous pressure (due to severe tricuspid regurgitation) is complicated by a systemic ineffective blood shunt via a DA ...

Critical Ebstein’s anomaly with circular shunt: from successful fetal therapy with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to biventricular repair using Da Silva cone technique [PDF]
We report an innovative treatment strategy for fetal Ebstein's anomaly with a circular shunt. We used transplacental non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, at the 29th gestational week, to constrict the ductus arteriosus avoiding fetal demise.

Transplacental non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs versus expectant management in fetal Ebstein anomaly with circular shunt: Systematic review and meta‐analysis [PDF]
Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation associated with high perinatal mortality. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aimed to investigate the outcomes of pregnancies affected by EA or tricuspid valve dysplasia (TVD ...
