Abstract
We describe two cases of left juxtaposition of the atrial appendages in whi ch fetal echocardiograms provided a clue to the diagnosis. Both cases were associated with complex cyanotic congenital heart disease. The clue to the diagnosis was found at the three-vessel view Abnormal vascular spaces were seen on the left side of the cross-sections of the great arterial trunks.
