    Abstract:
    This article focuses on the current status of in utero catheter interventions for congenital heart disease. The discussion of fetal interventions for cardiac defects briefly reviews the evolution of approaches to congenital heart disease and issues surrounding the prenatal detection of cardiac defects, the rationale for fetal intervention, and optional candidates for the procedures. Finally, the technical aspects and procedural considerations are reviewed.
