Resumen

The right aortic arch is a product of abnormal involution of the embryonic vascular arches. In recent years, fetal diagnosis has become more frequent with the use of routine ultrasonography of the heart and great vessels. The finding of a right aortic arch involves many aspects that may affect the prognosis of the fetus; therefore, the exhaustive study must be systematized. Below, we present a series of six cases of prenatal diagnosis and suggest an evaluation algorithm.
