Hello doctor. I went to the antenatal clinic today and the doctor told me that the baby's heart was a bit big and needed an ultrasound. Currently, I still have not had an ultrasound scheduled, so I am very confused, is the condition dangerous? I hope the doctor can help me. I would like to thank you.

Answer
Hello. A slightly enlarged heart could be abnormal but could also be within normal limits. Specific ultrasound assessment of all abnormalities, if any, is necessary to help make a diagnosis.
You should take your child to an examination and echocardiogram at Vinmec hospital so that the doctors can fully evaluate and advise you more carefully.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards!
