Methods From 2012 to Feb. 2014, we retrospectively collected 12 fetuses with large ventricular septal defect and outflow stenosis but not atresia at Juntendo University Hospital. We divided three groups based on postnatal management as no treatment (NT; n=4), PA banding (PAB; n=4) and shunting (n=4). Then we assessed the diameter of PA and aorta (Ao), then converted to z-score. Doppler pattern in DA was also evaluated.
