Abstract
We report a case of Uhl's anomaly imaged at 19 weeks of gestation by fetal echocardiography with pathological confirmation by anatomical gross heart specimen and tissue histology. Uhl's anomaly of the right ventricle is a rare cardiac disorder with isolated right ventricular enlargement with almost complete absence of the right ventricular myocardium.
Keywords:
Uhl’s anomaly; fetal imaging; histopathology.
