Objectives: After studying the article entitled “Prenatal Sonographic Detection of Ebstein’s Anomaly,” you will be able to:
Identify the sonographic appearance of Ebstein’s anomaly
List the characteristics of Ebstein’s anomaly
Describe the potential associated anomalies of Ebstein’s anomaly
Ebstein’s anomaly is the apical displacement of which valve?
Tricuspid Pulmonic Mitral Aortic
What does the Tei Index measure?
Chamber size Myocardial performance Valve regurgitation Oxygenation levels
What are the three leaflets of the normal tricuspid valve?
Medial, lateral, and septal Anterior, proximal, and distal Superior, inferior, and posterior Anterior, posterior, and septal
What criterion is crucial for the survival of a fetus with Ebstein’s anomaly?
Right to left shunting across the fossa ovalis Left to right shunting across the fossa ovalis Right to left shunting across a VSD Left to right shunting across a VSD
How does triscupid dysplasia differ from Ebstein’s anomaly?
With dysplasia, the valve is displaced and irregular With dysplasia, the valve is thickened and smooth With dysplasia, the valve is thickened and irregular With dysplasia, the valve is displaced and thickened
