Early Prenatal Diagnosis of an Extremely Rare Association of Down Syndrome and Transposition of the Great Vessels

Abstract:

Every year, an estimated 7.9 million infants (6% of worldwide births) are born with serious birth defects [1]. Congenital cardiovascular defects make up one of the largest groups of severe congenital malformations [2].The incidence of congenital heart defects in different studies varies from about 4/1,000 to 50/1,000 live births [3]. Congenital heart disease is frequently described in patients with Down syndrome and is the main cause of death in this population during the first two years of life [4]. Trisomy 21 with cardiovascular malformations have a maternal age-adjusted regional prevalence of 4.33/10,000 for the white population and 3.70/10,000 for the nonwhite population [5]. Prenatal diagnosis of congenital heart disease is important for proper perinatal and neonatal management, as congenital cardiac malformations occurs in approximately eight of 1000 live births [6]. We present an extremely rare case of early prenatal diagnosis and management of a fetus with trisomy 21 associated with the transposition of the great vessels, one of the most mysterious congenital cardiac malformations.
