Case report
A 28-year-old-woman (G2P0), was referred to our unit at 23 weeks of gestation because of suspicion of a cardiac anomaly. Nuchal translucency and triple test were normal.
Our examination at 23 and 26 weeks of pregnancy revealed a corrected transposition of the great arteries of the fetus.
Karyotype of the fetus was normal (46, XY). The newborn was delivered at 38 weeks (3100 g) with normal postnatal adaptation. The diagnosis of the congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries was confirmed.
