  • Minimally invasive therapy
  • Invasive therapy
  • Fetal surgery
  • EXIT procedure

Problems and research:

  • Major maternal surgery (laparotomy)
  • Hysterotomy
  • Bleeding ++
  • Membrane integrity/rupture/separation
  • Intraoperative contractions
slide-4
SLIDE 4

Fetal Surgery

Problems and research:

  • Fragile fetus
  • Dehydration
  • Hypothermia (1°C per 5 min of surgery)
  • Direct fetal trauma
  • Cord manipulation
  • Complex operations!
  • Postoperative tocolysis and labor!

Fetal Surgery

Solutions and research:

Fetal Surgery

Types of operations:

  • Lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO)
  • Pulmonary hypoplasia prevention
  • Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)
  • Pulmonary hypoplasia prevention
  • Large CCAM

Fetal Surgery

Results:

  • 100% preterm labor
  • High fetal mortality (condition-specific)
  • CDH: 14% survival
  • SCT: 0% survival
  • Vesicostomy: 75% renal failure
  • CCAM: 60% survival

Fetal Surgery

Conditions that have to be met:

  • Correct prenatal diagnosis
  • Correct differential diagnosis
  • Known natural history
  • Condition lethal if left untreated
  • No available postnatal treatment
  • Fetal operation feasible
slide-14
SLIDE 14

Fetal Surgery

So… What’s left?

  • Spina bifida
  • MOMS trial
  • Diaphragmatic hernia
  • Open repair: results worse than postnatal R/
  • Endoscopic repair: tracheal occlusion trial
  • CCAM, SCT
  • Only extreme, exceptional cases
  • Urinary tract obstruction
  • Only percutaneous, sometimes
  • TTTS, Acardiac twin
slide-15
SLIDE 15
  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Percutaneous vs. open endoscopy vs. laparotomy
  • Local vs. regional vs. general anesthesia
  • Access and exit techniques
  • Risks:
  • Chorioamnionitis
  • Preterm labor
  • Membrane rupture/PPROM
  • Amniotic leak
  • Bleeding

Technique:

Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

One-Slide Background

  • Herniated viscera compress the lungs
  • Hypoplastic lungs function poorly
  • Decades ago: 80% mortality at birth
  • Prenatal repair of the hernia too invasive
  • 14% survival
slide-21
SLIDE 21

Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

One-Slide Background

  • Fetal tracheal occlusion makes the lungs grow
  • Works great in animal models

Fetal Surgery

Diaphragmatic hernia

  • Tracheoscopy and detachable balloon
  • Prenatal surgery ‘no better’ than postnatal treatment
  • Moratorium in U.S.
  • European experience encouraging

Fetal Tracheal Occlusion

Now what?

  • Late, temporary occlusion works
  • Rapid lung growth and proliferation
  • Investigational Device Exemption (FDA)
  • Three centers in the US:
  • Brown
  • UCSF
  • Baylor

Spina Bifida

Now that the MOMS trial is over

Standard of care? What about maternal safety? What about the trial effect?

  • Future results may not match the MOMS results

Spina Bifida

Now that the MOMS trial is over

Minimally invasive approach? (Didn’t work in 2002, but how about now?)
