Abstract:
Congenital heart disease remains an important cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Screening for these is based on a good knowledge of normal fetal heart anatomy and ultrasound views to be performed. After recommending the use of the four chambers and the right outflow tract views in 2005, CNEOF proposes recently adding the left outflow tract assessment. The use of this one should sensitize the operator to the notion of sweeping essential to obtain all these views and make it possible to improve the detection of the conal VSD and conotruncal pathologies.
