Comprehensive Fetal Care Before Birth

Fetal therapy and interventions are advanced medical procedures designed to treat or manage health problems in the unborn baby while still in the womb. These techniques can help address conditions such as fetal anemia, twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, or congenital defects that might worsen if left untreated. By detecting and treating problems early, fetal therapy can significantly improve outcomes for both the baby and the mother.

Early Diagnosis for Targeted Treatment

The process begins with detailed fetal imaging and genetic testing to diagnose the condition accurately. Once identified, specialists recommend the most suitable treatment plan. Some interventions can be minimally invasive, performed through ultrasound guidance, while others may involve fetoscopic surgery – a precise method that uses tiny instruments to correct abnormalities within the uterus.

Types of Fetal Interventions

Fetal therapy may include procedures such as intrauterine blood transfusions, medication delivery, drainage of excess fluid, or laser surgery to separate shared blood vessels in twin pregnancies. Each method is chosen based on the specific needs of the baby and the underlying condition, ensuring the safest approach possible.

Multidisciplinary Expertise and Precision

Successful fetal interventions require collaboration among specialists in maternal-fetal medicine, neonatology, and pediatric surgery. With advanced technology and expert guidance, these teams provide a tailored approach that prioritizes both maternal safety and fetal health.
