Prenatal sonographic monitoring of progressive cardiac damages caused by anti-Ro antibodies: A case report

© 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Maternal autoantibodies to Ro/SSA are often linked to congenital heart block and rarely associated with structural defects. We describe the case of a fetus with anti-Ro-mediated second-degree block at 19 weeks, which progressed to a complete block, fibroelastosis, atri...

Maternal autoantibodies to Ro/SSA are often linked to congenital heart block and rarely associated with structural defects. We describe the case of a fetus with anti-Ro-mediated second-degree block at 19 weeks, which progressed to a complete block, fibroelastosis, atrioventricular valve insufficiency, and semilunar valve stenosis/insufficiency at 20, 22, 24, and 26 weeks, respectively, although the fetus received transplacental anti-arrhythmic drugs. The 2150-g fetus was vaginally delivered at 35 weeks. An external pacemaker was inserted immediately after birth and replaced with permanent pacemaker at the age of 3 months. The newborn has had a good outcome with well-controlled heart rate. 2018-09-05T04:34:47Z 2018-09-05T04:34:47Z 2018-06-01 Journal 10970096 00912751 2-s2.0-85031323425 10.1002/jcu.22541 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85031323425&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/58898
