Abstract

Congenital heart defects are the commonest major anomalies in newborn (8/1000). Transposition of the great arteries is observed in %5-8'de (0.26/1000) of the newborns with congenital heart defects. Hydrocephaly is defined as the diameter of lateral ventricles wider than 15mm. Additionally, in those cases the frequency of cardiac malformation is ranged %4.5-14.8. In this case report presents a pregnant woman at 21 gestation weeks referred for a fetus with hydrocephaly in whom a detailed ultrasonography revealed transposition of the great arteries.

Özet

Konjenital kalp defektleri en sık rastlanılan majör konjenital anomali olup, canlı yenidoğanlarm 8/1000'ni etkiler. Büyük arterlerin tam transpözisyonu, konjenital kalp defektli yenidoğanlarm %5-8'de (0.26/1000) izlenir. Hidrosefali, fetüste lateral ventrüküUerin çapının 15mm'den fazla olması olarak tanımlanır ve ek olarak olgularda konjenital kalp anomalisi izlenme oranın %4.5-14.8 arasında olduğu bildirilmiştir. Makalemizde gebeliğin 21. haftasında hidrosefali ön tanısı ile sevk edilen ve detaylı ultrasonografide büyük arterlerin transpözisyonu tespit edilen olgu sunulmaktadır.
