Prenatal 2D ultrasonic diagnosis of fetal complete atrioventricular block and bilateral hydroceles with occult maternal SS-A.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:We present a case of fetal complete atrioventricular block, diagnosed by the M mode of two-dimensional ultrasound, that was complicated with polyhydramnios and bilateral hydrocele. CASE REPORT:The fetus was delivered at 38 weeks' gestation by caesarean section. Postpartum autoimmune survey disclosed positive anti-Ro antibodies (SS-A) for both the mother and the newborn. Severe neonatal bradycardia with complete atrioventricular block was identified. CONCLUSION:Antenatal evaluation for a maternal history of autoimmune disease (especially systemic lupus erythematosus) and prevention of fetal bradycardia by reducing immune-mediated injuries on the cardiac conduction system are important.
