Specialized treatments to manage conditions affecting your baby before birth
In many cases, a fetus may have a condition that requires intervention before birth. Our fetal therapy services offer highly specialized treatments designed to correct or manage these conditions, giving your baby the best chance for a healthy life.
This procedure delivers healthy blood cells directly into the fetal circulation, typically used to treat severe fetal anemia caused by Rhesus disease or other conditions affecting red blood cells.
Excess amniotic fluid is drained to relieve pressure and reduce the risk of preterm labor or other complications associated with polyhydramnios.
Sterile fluid is introduced into the amniotic cavity when there is too little amniotic fluid (oligohydramnios), helping to cushion the umbilical cord and support fetal lung development.
We perform aspiration of fetal pericardial fluid (fluid around the heart), fetal pleural effusion (fluid around the lungs), and fetal ascitic fluid (fluid in the abdomen) to relieve pressure and improve fetal outcomes.
These advanced procedures are only considered after a thorough diagnosis. We will have a detailed consultation with you and your family to discuss the procedure, potential outcomes, and the care plan. Our team will guide you through every step, from preparation to post-procedure care.
