Overview
Uhl anomaly is a very rare congenital heart disease (less than 100 cases 1900–1993) with a partial or total loss of the myocardial muscle in the right ventricle.
Etymology
Uhl anomaly was first described in 1952.[1]
Diagnosis
Fetal echocardiographic findings
Three findings are enlarged right ventricular cavity without apical trabeculation with a thin hypokinetic ventricular wall.[2]
