A case of fetal cardiac rupture diagnosed by postmortem magnetic resonance image
Abstract: Background: Fetal cardiac rupture is very rare and has been scarcely reported. Prenatal image diagnosis of fetal cardiac rupture is not well characterized. Case: An 18-week fetus with a pericardial mass and effusion revealed by ultrasound was suspected to have a pericardial tumor. Fetal demise occurred at 19 weeks’ gestation. Postmortem magnetic resonance image (MRI) found a pericardial mass diagnosed as a hematoma caused by cardiac rupture. Findings were confirmed by autopsy. Conclusion: MRI may be applicable for prenatal diagnosis of cardiac rupture.
