Fetoscopic Laser Ablation of Type II Vasa Previa—Case Report and Systematic Review

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vasa previa is a rare but potentially fatal obstetric condition in which fetal vessels traverse the internal cervical os without the protection of placental tissue or Wharton's jelly, making them highly vulnerable to rupture during labor or spontaneous membrane rupture. This can result in rapid fetal exsanguination and death.

Risk of preterm delivery in women with a history of preterm labor successfully arrested by tocolytic treatment in their previous pregnancy

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
A history of preterm labor that was successfully managed and resulted in a term delivery should be carefully documented, as these women continue to have an elevated risk of preterm birth in subsequent pregnancies. Abstract Introduction We aimed to determine if women with a history of preterm labor successfully arrested by tocolytic treatment who gave ...

Fetoscopic two‐layer closure for open neural tube defects: prospective study of obstetric, surgical and perinatal outcomes in the first 50 cases

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 453-461, October 2025.
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.
