Prenatal diagnosis of ventriculocoronary fistula

Abstract

A ventriculocoronary fistula can be identified prenatally by color and spectral Doppler. This anomaly should be sought in fetuses with outflow tract obstructive cardiac lesions and an intact interventricular septum. Prenatal diagnosis allows early angiography postnatally. Delineation of coronary vascular regions may therefore facilitate preoperative planning.
