Prognostic value of fetal growth and prenatal functional echocardiography in tetralogy of FALLOT
First demonstration that fetal growth and pulmonary peak velocity at third trimester are independent predictors of postnatal outcome in Tetralogy of Fallot. This may enhance the accuracy of prenatal counseling and facilitate more individualized planning for delivery and neonatal care. Abstract Introduction Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) shows variability in

Pulmonary atresia in prenatal life
Seven cases of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were detected in prenatal life. In two of these cases, there was a small hypertrophied right ventricle of the type commonly seen postnatally. In the remaining five cases, the right atrium and right ventricle were grossly dilated to a degree that caused lung compression.
