About Video

Asymmetry of the ventricles. A significant fetal structural heart defect is suspected in the early part of this scan due to the obvious asymmetry of the ventricles. The right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) are identified to be of adequate size. The left ventricle (LV) cannot be easily opened out and the atrioventricular valve above it appears plate-like and does not open well. A hypoplastic left heart variant is suspected in this video.
