Fetal Interventions
Reaching inside the uterus to assist a troubled foetus is known as foetal intervention. Over the past few decades, we have made such remarkable progress in foetal issue detection. Only a small number of disorders need treatment prior to birth, despite the fact that many may now be correctly detected before birth using genetic and imaging techniques. The treatments listed below can be used to fix these mostly minor anatomical issues that continue to harm the developing foetus.
All foetal intervention is truly maternal-fetal intervention, and the safety of the mother—her present health and her capacity for future reproduction—is the most crucial factor in all foetal intervention. The mother is an innocent spectator who accepts some risk on behalf of her unborn foetus, yet the intervention is intended to help the foetus who is experiencing a difficulty. The mother, her health, her family, and her capacity to bear more children in the future should all be taken into account while balancing the risks and advantages of an intervention.
