In utero ventriculosubgaleal shunt placement in a fetal lamb model: Phase 1 technical insights

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Background Progressive ventriculomegaly and the resulting irreversible brain damage may be mitigated through timely diversion prenatal intervention. While ventriculosubgaleal shunt (VSGS) is commonly performed postnatally in premature infants, in utero placement is unexplored.
