Abstract

Fetal hydrops and possible congenital heart disease with atrioventricular block was diagnosed one day before birth in a male infant of 35 weeks' gestation. Echocardiography and angiocardiography soon after birth revealed a cardiac tumor. The child died three days after birth. Necropsy showed tuberous sclerosis involving the heart (type-I rhabdomyoma), kidneys, retina, and central nervous system.
