P22.05: Idiopathic constriction of fetal ductus arteriosus: three cases and review of the literature

Abstract: should include extended cardiac examination (including 4-chamber view, three vessel view and outflow tract views, including colour doppler). However, this should only be performed when possible without extending the standard examination time (30 minutes). All screening procedures were performed by sonographers, specially trained in 2 nd trimester ultrasound. All examinations were registered in a fetal medicine database (Astraia), and the proportion of women having a complete extended cardiac examination was mo… Show more

“…Likely depending on the degree and duration of constriction, the neonate may be asymptomatic or may present with severe refractory pulmonary hypertension and cardiorespiratory failure. 3 Maternal use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs causes fetal ductal constriction by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, which normally maintain ductal patency. Most of the reported cases have been associated with maternal non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use, but spontaneous ductal constriction has also been described.…”

“…Most of the reported cases have been associated with maternal non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use, but spontaneous ductal constriction has also been described. 3 Recently, it has become evident that certain foods, herbs, and teas affect the synthesis of prostaglandins as well, implicating these common substances in fetal ductus arteriosus constriction during the third trimester. 2 The biological activity of polyphenols, especially flavonoids, has sparked the interest of the health and wellness industry and manufacturers of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant therapies.…”

“…Constriction can also be associated with some congenital structural heart diseases such as transposition of the great arteries [7] . Moreover, idiopathic constriction was suggested in the absence of an apparent etiology [8] .…”

“…The authors comment that ductus arteriosus constriction has been associated with maternal consumption of polyphenol‐rich beverages, and that constriction caused by these substances is reversible, with its discontinuation resulting in echocardiographic improvement in most cases. They conclude that a history of taking NSAID or polyphenol‐rich foods should be sought (Enzensberger et al, ).…”
