Fetoscopic laser ablation vs standard management for Type-II and Type-III vasa previa. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective The standard management (SM) for vasa previa (VP) includes antepartum inpatient admission at 28–32 weeks' gestation followed by Cesarean delivery at 34–37 weeks. Case reports and case series have reported on fetoscopic laser ablation (FLA) as an alternative management approach for Types‐II and ‐III VP.

Fetoscopic two-layer closure for open neural tube defects: prospective study of obstetric, surgical and perinatal outcomes in the first 50 cases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Fetoscopic repair for open neural tube defects (ONTDs) has gained acceptance among leading groups, although it remains controversial owing to the lack of a standardized neurosurgical technique. In 2018, our group described a new fetoscopic two‐layer procedure with an exteriorized uterus for ONTD reconstruction.

Laser fetoscopy ablation for twin-twin transfusion syndrome may reduce the risk of ROP [PDF]
Purpose: 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.
