Congenital heart diseases (CHDs) affect approximately 1 in 100 newborns and remain a leading cause of infant mortality. Advances in fetal medicine and cardiac interventions have revolutionized the management of CHDs, offering unprecedented opportunities for early diagnosis and intervention.
Fetal Interventions
Fetal interventions encompass a range of procedures performed during pregnancy to address specific CHDs. These interventions aim to improve fetal outcomes, such as reducing heart failure and optimizing fetal growth.
- Balloon Valvuloplasty: Widening narrowed heart valves
- Stent Placement: Implanting small devices to keep vessels open
- Laser Ablation: Removing obstructive lesions in the heart
Hybrid Procedures
Hybrid procedures combine fetal interventions with surgical interventions after birth. This approach allows for staged treatment, optimizing outcomes and reducing the risks associated with complex heart surgeries in premature infants.
- Fetal Balloon Valvuloplasty with Postnatal Surgical Repair: Improving heart function before and after birth
- Fetal Stenting with Postnatal Hybrid Repair: Maintaining vessel patency and reducing the need for repeat surgeries
