FETAL THERAPY

• Fetoscopic Laser Ablation: It is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat complications in pregnancies with monochorionic twins—twins that share a single placenta. It involves using a laser to correct imbalances in blood flow between the twins, improving their chances of a healthy outcome.
• Interstitial Laser Therapy: Interstitial laser therapy is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat complications in pregnancies with monochorionic twins (twins sharing a single placenta). Unlike fetoscopic laser ablation, which involves inserting a fetoscope into the uterus, interstitial laser therapy involves direct laser treatment through small incisions in the abdomen.
• Radio Frequency Ablation: Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat complications in pregnancies with monochorionic twins, or twins that share a single placenta. It involves using radiofrequency energy to coagulate and seal abnormal blood vessels in the placenta, helping to correct imbalances in blood flow between the twins.
• Bipolar Cord Coagulation: Bipolar Cord Coagulation is a specialized technique used to treat TTTS in monochorionic twin pregnancies. TTTS occurs when there is an abnormal blood flow imbalance between the twins due to shared placental blood vessels. This condition can lead to significant complications for both fetuses.
• Intrauterine Fetal Blood Transfusion: Intrauterine Fetal Blood Transfusion (IUT) is a procedure used to treat fetal anemia, a condition where the fetus has a lower-than-normal level of red blood cells. This can occur due to various reasons, including Rh incompatibility, blood loss, or other medical conditions affecting the fetus. The procedure involves administering blood directly into the fetus’s circulation to restore normal blood levels and improve overall health.
