Tortuous and aneurysmal ductus arteriosus (TADA) is a relatively rare condition, especially in the first and second trimesters. The ductus arteriosus has functional importance in the fetal circulation, being its aneurysmatic format characterized by saccular dilatation of the vessel. Majority of cases have a benign evolution, although they can be associated with syndromic forms and with important complications. We report the clinical management and echocardiographic follow-up in a newborn with this very early finding in prenatal setting.
