Ectopia Cordis

This case illustrates the critical importance of early prenatal diagnosis, multidisciplinary coordination, and multimodality imaging in the management of ectopia cordis. Advanced imaging not only facilitates accurate diagnosis but also plays a central role in guiding resuscitative strategies and surgical planning. Cardiac MRI provides complementary information to the CT scan with advantages of excellent intracardiac detail (especially for complex anatomy such as double outlet right ventricle, which is commonly seen in ectopia cordis) and functional/flow information.
