Fetal hydropericardium associated with left ventricular diverticulum.
Fetal pericardial effusion usually develops because of fetal heart failure, infections, chromosomal abnormalities, fetal anaemia, intracardiac or extracardiac tumours. There is only one case in the literature of isolated hydropericardium associated with left ventricular diverticulum and here we report another.
