  • Title: [Successful intrauterine treatment of a supraventricular tachycardia-induced hydrops fetalis with digoxin and verapamil].

    Abstract:
    Intrauterine supraventricular tachycardia with consequent congestive heart failure is a high-risk fetal complication. It is one of the causes of non-immunological hydrops fetalis and may lead to premature delivery or even fetal loss. We report the successful intrauterine treatment of a case of hydrops fetalis due to supraventricular tachycardia by administration of digoxin and verapamil to the mother. Echocardiography is diagnostic and mandatory for follow up.
