ABSTRACT
Congenital ventricular aneurysms and diverticula are rare congenital heart diseases, currently accessible to prenatal diagnosis. Information on the natural course of ventricular aneurysm or diverticulum detected during fetal life is limited as there are only few case reports and case series enumerating the defect. We aimed to describe through three cases, the prenatal features and clinical outcomes of fetal cardiac aneurysms. The first one was diagnosed during the second trimester and spontaneous evolution was favorable. The two others were diagnosed in the first trimester with a large and early pericardial effusion. For one, the parents opted for termination of pregnancy at 15 weeks of gestation and the other showed a spontaneous regression of the effusion and no hemodynamic compromise.
