The echocardiographic appearances in a case of persistent truncus arteriosus with aortic arch interruption and truncal valve dysplasia was noted in a 24 week fetus. Elective termination of pregnancy was carried out and all the echocardiographic findings were confirmed by pathological examination suggesting the possibility of accurate prenatal diagnosis of such lesions.

Key Words: Fetal echocardiography, • fetal disease, • congenital heart defect.
