Abstract

The absence of ductus venosus is an uncommon condition with a variable prognosis, which can vary from an isolated finding to causing foetal death. Furthermore, it may also be associated with other genetic anomalies and syndromes. In the absence of ductus venosus, the flow needs to find new pathways (extrahepatic or intrahepatic shunt). In this article, we present one clinical case, with one of the variants, without association to chromosomal diseases.
