Abstract
Abstract
Situs ambiguous comprises of 3% of congenital heart defects and is present in at least 1 in 10,000 live births. Most cases diagnosed prenatally are associated with complex cardiac defects which can be detected by ultrasonography. This is a case report of a fetus presenting with hydrops, which was detected to have situs ambiguous, a complex cardiac defect and multiple laterality defects on autopsy.
