Fetal complete heart block is a rare cardiac arrhythmia occurring in prenatal life. The diagnosis
usually requires a multimodality approach of imaging technology especially M-mode and
Doppler ultrasound. The management guideline is not conclusive. We presented 2 cases of fetal
complete heart block diagnosed prenatally. The fetuses were closely monitored conservatively
and delivered at term. Permanent cardiac pacemakers were performed neonatally with satisfactory
outcomes.
