Abstract

The four-chamber view (4ChV) is fundamental to fetal echocardiography, as it will show some, but not all the evidence for most fetal cardiac abnormalities. The 4ChV provides the base view from which further views can be developed and is fundamental in the assessment of ventricular proportions and imbalance, ventricular inlets, evaluation of the crux and for septal defects. Additionally, the 4ChV is the ideal view for initial evaluation of heart rhythm and extracardiac abnormalities such as a pericardial effusion, mass lesions and abnormalities of heart position. This chapter will explore abnormalities seen in the 4ChV and discuss common associations and outcomes for each lesion to guide counselling.
