Abstract

We reconstructed and printed a 3D model of the fetal heart affected by d-transposition of the great arteries from prenatal ultrasound images. Our 3D model revealed to be very helpful in showing the basic anatomical features of fetal complex Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) and represents an interesting additional diagnostic tool to the current standard imaging armamentarium, improving the quality of prenatal parental counseling.
