Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Clinical Utility of Nuchal Translucency Measurement in First‐Trimester Ultrasound Screening in a Setting With First‐Tier NIPT for Aneuploidy Screening

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Peripheral skin necrosis in the recipient of monochorionic twins complicated by twin-twin transfusion syndrome.

, 2006
Twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) complicates approximately 15% of monochorionic, diamniotic twin pregnancies and if untreated carries a high perinatal loss rate of between 80% and 100%, depending on the stage.

Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)

Twin reversed arterial perfusion syndrome in a monochorionic monoamniotic twin pregnancy

, 2021
Objective: Twin-Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a rare complication of monochorionic multiple gestation. Conservative management should be considered if there is no poor prognostic factor.

Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome After Radiofrequency Ablation in Dizygotic Monochorionic Triamniotic Triplet Pregnancy With Sex Discordance: A Case Report

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundWe report a case of dizygotic monochorionic triamniotic triplet pregnancy. Twin-twin transfusion syndrome was subsequently diagnosed combined with sex discordance in the two surviving fetuses after one fetus was reduced, which is extremely rare

Genetic Investigation in Fetal Growth Restriction: An Integrated Approach for Clinical Practice

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International guidelines recommend genetic testing when fetal growth restriction (FGR) accompanies structural anomalies, but recommendations for apparently isolated FGR remain variable, particularly regarding gestational age thresholds and the role of exome sequencing (ES). Interpretation is difficult because studies define FGR inconsistently,
