the †nding shown?
A. Turner syndrome
B. Normal chromosome analysis
C. Williams-Beuren (or Williams) syndrome
D. Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)
E. Noonan syndrome
3. A G1P0 23-year-old pregnant female with a history of
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is sent for
evaluation secondary to concern for an abnormal fetal
heart rhythm noted on routine OB screening. The fetal
M-mode tracing in Figure 39.2 (Video 39.2) was obtained
from the fetus. This tracing demonstrates:
A. Fetal ventricular tachycardia
B. Benign premature atrial contractions
C. Supraventricular tachycardia
D. Normal fetal heart rate
E. Sinus tachycardia

5. On routine fetal echocardiographic evaluation of a
24-week gestation fetus, a small, circumferential pericardial effusion is noted. The fetal heart is structurally
normal with normal Doppler evaluation, including the
umbilical vessels. There is normal cardiac rhythm, heart
rate, and ventricular function. No other extravascular ‚uid
collections are identiƒed in the fetus. The pregnancy is
otherwise uncomplicated.
Which of the following is correct regarding this effusion?
A. This fetus has “hydrops fetalis.”
B. Follow-up evaluation for cardiac ƒbroma should be
performed.
C. Although follow-up is indicated, this effusion will
most likely resolve.
D. Although small, this effusion indicates a greatly
increased risk of fetal demise.
