Dorsal approach technique for the visualization of the aortic arch

Abstract

Aim: In this study, we aimed define a new technique to visualize the aortic arch in order to diagnose aortic arch anomalies with a dorsal approach when fetal spine is in anterior position within the uterus. Materials and Methods: 115 patients who were referred to the prenatal screening unit between gestational weeks 20-40 were admitted to the study. 110 patients with normal cardiac findings and 5 fetuses with postnatally confirmed diagnosis of coarctation of aorta were evaluated with the new technique. Results: Aortic arch of 115 fetuses were successfully visualized with the technique defined in detail. Conclusion: The dorsal approach for the visualization of the aortic arch seems as a durable and a convenient technique for the fetal cardiac evaluation, especially in terms of better diagnostic capability for aortic arch pathologies under circumstances where the ventral approach is not feasible.
