Changes in Fetal Circulation Associated with Congenital Heart Disease and Their Effects on Fetal Growth

Our aim was to investigate the association between fetal growth and cerebrovascular resistance in fetuses with congenital heart disease (CHD).Fetal echocardiography was performed to measure the biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference, femur length, estimated fetal body weight, middle cerebral artery (MCA) resistance index (RI) and umbilical artery (UA) RI in 44 fetuses with CHD and 140 normal fetuses at a gestational age of 28-34...
