Abstract
Right ventricular aneurysm is a rare congenital defect that can be diagnosed with fetal echocardiography. Information on etiology of right ventricular aneurysm is limited and its prognosis remains variable from asymptomatic forms to severe cases. Here we report three cases of fetal right ventricular aneurysms that could have been related to coronary artery disorders and needed regular monitoring of progression in size and signs of cardiac decompensation.
