Abstract: Prenatal severe Ebstein anomaly might be complicated by a circular shunt. In these cases, persistently elevated right atrial and venous pressure (due to severe tricuspid regurgitation) is complicated by a systemic ineffective blood shunt via… read more here.

Abstract: We report an innovative treatment strategy for fetal Ebstein's anomaly with a circular shunt. We used transplacental non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, at the 29th gestational week, to constrict the ductus arteriosus avoiding fetal demise. We addressed… read more here.

Abstract: A circular shunt is a poor prognostic factor associated with Ebstein’s anomaly. Targeting the constriction of the ductus arteriosus (DA) in order to limit or resolve the circular shunt, has been shown to improve fetal… read more here.
