[Fetal cardiopathies. Balance of 7 years of consistent screening at the maternity unit of the Pontarlier hospital].
The authors carry out a retrospective analysis of the cases of fetal heart disease reported in a maternity clinic since 1983. Sixty-nine percent of these cases were detected by ultrasound during pregnancy. There were no malformations in a fetus of the "high-risk" mother. The early care given to malformed neonates does not appear to have improved their vital and/or post-operative prognosis. Early diagnosis of serious malformations should lead to a greater number of voluntary terminations of pregnancy.
