FAQ
What is Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS)?
TTTS is a serious condition that affects monochorionic twin pregnancies, where the twins share a single placenta. Abnormal blood vessel connections in the placenta cause one twin to transfer blood to the other, leading to health risks for both.
What is fetoscopic laser coagulation?
Fetoscopic laser coagulation is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that seals abnormal vascular connections between twins on the placenta using laser energy. This stops the unbalanced blood flow and stabilizes the pregnancy.
Why is the ultra-thin 1 mm optic technique important?
Using an ultra-thin fetoscope reduces the size of the incision in the uterus, minimizing the risk of complications such as premature rupture of membranes. This approach is associated with better pregnancy outcomes and faster maternal recovery.
