Placental vessel segmentation and registration in fetoscopy: Literature review and MICCAI FetReg2021 challenge findings [PDF]
Fetoscopy laser photocoagulation is a widely adopted procedure for treating Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS). The procedure involves photocoagulation pathological anastomoses to restore a physiological blood exchange among twins. The procedure is

In vivo Sealing of Fetoscopy-Induced Fetal Membrane Defects by Mussel Glue
Introduction: The benefits of fetal surgery are impaired by the high incidence of iatrogenic preterm prelabor rupture of the fetal membranes (iPPROM), for which chorioamniotic separation has been suggested as a potential initiator.

The method of hermetic sealing of iatrogenic damage of fetal membranes during fetal surgical interventions [PDF]
The article presents a new method for treating iatrogenic damage to membranes in fetuscopic interventions. Since surgical treatment during pregnancy is associated with the use of trocar and amniotic fetal puncture, the most frequent complication of this ...

Laser fetoscopy ablation for twin–twin transfusion syndrome may reduce the risk of ROP
Twin–twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a condition wherein monochorionic twins share a common placenta with placental anastomoses between the two foetal circulations. Most infants who survive TTTS are born prematurely.
