Successful prenatal digoxin therapy for Ebstein's anomaly with hydrops fetalis. A case report.

Abstract

The favorable outcome in this case supports the positive effect of prenatal digoxin therapy for Ebstein's anomaly with hydrops fetalis. In such conditions, upon the appearance of hydrops and congestive cardiac failure, immediate digoxin therapy may be useful. This successful trial encouraged us to manage such fetuses more aggressively.
