2015, European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive BiologyCitation Excerpt :Fetoscopic laser ablation is the established first-line therapy for severe TTTS, and an overall survival rate of approximately 75% may be expected adopting current techniques [4–8]. As survival outcomes improve with expanding treatment techniques, focus is turning to medium-term neurocognitive and cardiac outcomes [9–12]. The Irish national fetal laser program was established in 2006, comprising of a single fetal medicine team from two large tertiary referral centers, serving as a national tertiary referral service for all 19 obstetric units in the country.
Long-term neurologic outcomes after common fetal interventions
2015, American Journal of Obstetrics and GynecologyCitation Excerpt :Unfortunately, the data on long-term follow-up after conservative management of conditions are scarce. There is only one available study addressing the long-term follow-up of monochorionic twin pregnancies with twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) in patients who did not undergo intervention.38 In that study of 94 patients, the perinatal mortality rate was 48%.
