Double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is a rare congenital cardiac lesion. It is usually an incidental finding in children and young adults. Diagnosis during fetal life is exceedingly rare. We report a case of DCLV diagnosed in the prenatal period associated with a ventricular septal defect (VSD). Transthoracic echocardiographic and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the prenatal findings. At seven-month follow-up, the baby was asymptomatic. Transthoracic echocardiographic check-up revealed spontaneous closure of the VSD and stable aspect of the main left ventricle and the accessory chamber.
双腔左心室(DCLV)是一种罕见的先天性心脏病变。它通常在儿童和年轻人中偶然发现。胎儿期诊断极为罕见。我们报告一例产前诊断为双腔左心室并伴有室间隔缺损(VSD)的病例。经胸超声心动图和磁共振成像证实了产前检查结果。在七个月的随访中,婴儿无症状。经胸超声心动图检查显示室间隔缺损自发闭合,主左心室和副腔情况稳定。
