Frontiers in fetal cardiovascular disease
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2004This article reviews the state of the art in prenatal cardiovascular imaging, the elucidation of regional vascular flow patterns in the developing fetus and what can be learned from these flow patterns, the new clinical practice systems being that are being implemented to deal with the fetal patient and its family, and the prospects for fetal surgery.

Surgically correctable fetal disease
The American Journal of Surgery, 2000This paper will give an overview of fetal intervention over the last 2 decades. It is interesting to think that what we think of as birth defects are not really such at all. They are defects that become manifest at birth but which have a long and interesting history. As Samuel Taylor Coleridge said, “The history of man for the nine months preceding his

Fetal Echocardiography to Diagnose Fetal Heart Disease
NeoReviews, 2012Fetal echocardiography plays a central role in the evaluation of fetuses at risk for heart disease. It allows for detection of cardiac malformations, dysrhythmias, and evaluation of cardiac function. Indications for fetal echocardiography span a wide range that extends from the abnormal screening ultrasound in a low-risk pregnancy to the high-risk ...

Immunologic Disease and Fetal Death
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1987Both maternal isoimmunization and maternal autoimmune disease are associated with fetal death. For isoimmunization the immunologic nature of fetal death (hydrops fetalis) is beyond question, but many of the details are poorly understood. It would be extremely helpful to know what immunologic factors are responsible for the wide variation in the degree ...

The fetal origins of adult disease
Fetal and Maternal Medicine Review, 1994Recent studies have shown that babies who are small for dates at birth, or who fail to grow in infancy, have, in adult life, raised blood pressure, impaired glucose tolerance, abnormal serum lipids, raised fibrinogen and high death rates from coronary disease, stroke and obstructive lung disease.

Human fetal bilirubin levels and fetal hemolytic disease
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1992The development of secondary fetal anemia in association with maternal red blood cell alloimmunization requires hemolysis. In specimens obtained at the time of a clinically indicated cordocentesis, total and direct umbilical venous bilirubin was measured and the indirect umbilical venous bilirubin calculated in 43 antigen-positive and 30 control ...

Familial Diseases Revealed by a Fetal Anomaly
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2006The recognition of a fetal anomaly can lead to the same diagnosis being made in one of the asymptomatic parents unaware of the problem. We analyzed cases in which the discovery of a fetal anomaly led to the discovery of a genetic familial disorder.Families in which the recognition of a fetal anomaly led to the same diagnosis being made in one of the ...

Antenatal diagnosis of structural CHD is now established in clinical practice in many countries. As a consequence, fetal cardiology has developed into a specialty on its own right. Extra-cardiac, chromosomal and genetic abnormalities are not uncommon associations, and therefore, a multidisciplinary approach is important when counselling families about ...

The causes of congenital anomalies are genetic and nongenetic. Genetic disorders include chromosomal disorder, single gene (monogenic) disorders, and multifactorial disorders that result from the interaction of multiple genes and environmental factors. There is little experience with fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and genetic disorders. However,

A GROWING BODY of scientific research suggests that exposure to chemical toxicants in the womb can lead to chronic health problems, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, later in life. Although scientists agree that the evidence is compelling, many of them are frustrated because such data aren’t being used in regulatory decision ...
