Antenatal diagnosis of double outlet of right ventricle without extracardiac anomaly: A report of 4 cases

Four fetuses were diagnosed antenatally with double outlet of right ventricle (DORV) at 17, 20, 26, and 28 weeks' gestation, respectively, using 2-dimensional sonography. Chromosome study was normal in all 4 cases, and there were no extracardiac abnormalities. The sonographic diagnoses were bas...
