A comprehensive fetal echocardiography was performed including tissue Doppler and 2-dimensional\u2013derived strain and strain rate. Postnatal blood pressure measurement at 6 months of age was also performed. FGR cases showed signs of more globular hearts with decreased longitudinal motion (left systolic annular peak velocity: controls mean 6 cm\/s [SD 1.2] versus FGR 5.3 [1]) and diastolic dysfunction (isovolumic relaxation time: controls 44 ms [6] versus FGR 52 [9]). Peak strain and strain rate values of the left ventricle were not significantly different; however, a postsystolic shortening in the basal segment of the septal ventricular wall was observed in 57% of the FGR cases and in none of controls (\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.001).
