Abstract
There is a strong association between prenatally diagnosed structural heart disease and fetal chromosomal abnormalities. Isomerism of the at rial appendages is an exception to this because the fetal karyotype is usually normal in this condition. A case of atrial isomerism diagnose d antenatally with a normal female karyotype but with a microdeletion of chromosome 22q11 is reported.
