Early prenatal diagnosis of Scimitar syndrome.

Scimitar venous anomaly is a rare congenital vascular anomaly characterized by partial or complete anomalous venous return and extra cardiac findings. Several studies addressed the postnatal diagnosis of this anomaly, providing specific clinical clues and radiographic findings to confirm the diagnosis. However, reaching a diagnosis prenatally remains a challenge. In this study we present two cases of early prenatal diagnosis of Scimitar syndrome at 14-16 weeks of gestation and describe the key sonographic findings of this condition.
