Abstract

We describe our experience with prenatal diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot with supracardiac totally anomalous pulmonary venous connection. We also suspected obstruction in the ascending vertical vein as it crossed the right bronchus and coursed superiorly to join the right superior caval vein. This finding was confirmed on postnatal echocardiography, and at autopsy.
