Rationale: Pregnancy is a special term in life with physiological changes in both cardiorespiratory and immune systems; that is why severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in pregnancy may result in an altered response. With this, we present a case report of a young pregnant lady who was exposed to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection just before pregnancy and ended up with an affected fetus. The impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) exposure on neonatal outcomes has not yet been fully evaluated; by this article, we aim to find if COVID-19 exposure is linked to congenital anomalies.

Background: Cardiac heart defects affect nearly 6-12 per 1000 live births in the general population and are more frequent than common trisomies.

Aim: To assess the efficacy and technical limitations of first-trimester fetal heart evaluation in the 11-14-weeks' scan and comparison with the second-trimester anatomical exam by ultrasound.

Material And Method: Between April 2015 and July 2020, medical records and ultrasound data of 3295 pregnancies who underwent first-trimester fetal anatomy exams by ultrasound were reviewed retrospectively.

Article Synopsis
  • - Prenatal diagnosis of thrombosis in the torcular herophili is rare and may be misdiagnosed due to lack of familiarity among clinicians.
  • - Key imaging techniques for identifying this condition include sonography with color Doppler, which reveals characteristic triangular fluid collections and thrombus, and fetal magnetic resonance imaging for detailed anatomical information.
  • - The text discusses two specific cases with both sonographic and magnetic resonance imaging results, along with a literature review on the prenatal diagnosis of this condition.
