case_images: The ultrasound examination at 24GA showed that the fetus displayed a defect in the ventricular compartment, which was confirmed by the ultrasound examination at 30 GA (Figure 1A). At 33GA (Figure 1B), the patient was referred for further evaluation after a third trimester ultrasound revealed a 3.0 mm ventricular septal defect, and all four limbs were smaller than is observed at normal gestational weeks.
