Sonographic evaluation of the fetal heart is an important part of obstetric sonography. The sonographer and sonologist should be familiar with the sonographic appearance of the normal fetal heart and with common structural abnormalities. Occasionally, normal structures in or adjacent to the fetal heart may simulate an abnormality. Although one should seek consultative sonography in instances of uncertain or questionable findings, unnecessary referral and concern may be avoided in some cases if the sonologist is familiar with normal variants and pitfalls. In this pictorial essay, we present several such pitfalls that we and others have observed in the four-chamber view (Fig. 1) and in views of the ventricular outflow tracts (Figs. 2 and 3).
