ABSTRACT
A case of premature closure of foramen ovale (PCFO) is presented. The patient was sent to the Fetal Maternal Unit after 30 weeks of gestation due to hydrops fetalis. A Doppler ultrasound performed after 34 weeks of gestation showed no interatrial flow and led to the confirmation of PCFO, associated to pleural effusion and ascitis. No evidence of hydrops, pleural effusion, ascitis, cardiac failure, cardiac defects nor chromosomal abnormalities were present in the newborn baby. Since prenatal diagnosis of PCFO is a life threatening condition, detection improves fetal and neonatal life expectancy (AU)
RESUMEN
Se reporta el cierre prematuro de foramen oval (CPFO) en un embarazo de 30 semanas de gestación, enviado con hidrops fetal a Unidad de Medicina Materno Fetal. A las 34 semanas se evaluó con Ultrasonido Doppler y se observó falta de flujo entre aurículas, confirmando el CPFO, presencia de derrame pleural y ascitis. Después del nacimiento, al neonato se le descartó la presencia de hidrops, derrame o ascitis, insuficiencia cardiaca, defectos cardiacos o cromosomopatía, y egresó sano. El CPFO pone en riesgo la vida. Cuando es detectado prenatalmente mejora la expectativa de vida fetal y neonatal (AU)
