Abstract
Many cases have been reported about fetal arrhythmia in single fetus, but up to now few data have been reported about fetal arrhythmia in multiple pregnancies. In this study, we presented the case history of fetal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in one of twin who has no structural cardiac abnormalities, from a mother treated betamimetic agents and Magnesium sulfate due to imminent preterm. Digoxin was administered to the mother for fetal SVT in the 28th gestational week. Fetal SVT was treated successfuliy with digoxin. The babies were delivered at 3£?h week of the gestation. Transient tacypnea was seen in the fetus with SVT for 12 hours. Electrocardiography (ECG), echocardiography and 24- Hour Holter recordings were normal in both of them. We reported this case because of fetal SVT is seen in one of twin who was successfuliy treated with digoxin aithough there was no structural abnormaiity in heart.
Abstract
İntrauterin olarak tek bebeklerde fetal ritm bozuklukları bildirilmekle birlikte, çoklu gebeliklerde bebeklerde oluşan ritm bozukluk/arıyla ilgili yayınlar nadirdir. Bu çalışmada erken doğum tehdidi nedeniyle magnezyum sülfat alan annenin, kalplerinde yapısal anomali olmayan ikiz bebeklerinin birinde saptanan, fetal supraventriküler taşikardi (SVT) sunulmuştur. Anneye 28. haftada oral digoksin tedavisi verilmiş ve fetal SVT, başarı ile tedavi edilmiştir. 38. haftada doğum olmuş ve SVT olan bebekte geçici takipne gözlenmiştir. Her iki bebekte de doğum sonrası elektrokardiografi, ekokardiografi ve 24-saat holter kayıtları normal olarak saptanmıştır. Bu olgu kalpte yapısal anormallik olmadan, ikiz bebeklerin birinde saptanan fetal SVT ve başarılı tedavisi nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
