Estenose aórtica fetal: sobreviver no limite

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Aortic valve stenosis is a congenital heart disease with an estimated prevalence at birth of 0.22/1.000 worldwide. During intrauterine life it can progress unfavorably, affecting newborn survival and his cardiovascular development. Fetal echocardiography is an important tool in the diagnosis of this condition and its various manifestations, allowing adequate planning. Its evolution in utero is complex and places difficult clinical decisions. We report the case of a patient with prenatal diagnosis of severe aortic stenosis, and demonstrate the complex clinical follow-up of these situations.
