2.	Hydrops Fetalis (Fetal Edema) 07/01/2008 - "When fetal hydrops is present or impending, in utero fetal therapy is required to try to reverse that pathological course associated with fetal or neonatal death" 09/01/1999 - "This report suggests that direct fetal therapy by umbilical vein puncture and evacuation of effusions constitutes an effective treatment for supraventricular tachycardias with massive fetal hydrops which do not respond to transplacental treatment." 04/01/1999 - "Direct intrauterine fetal therapy in a case of bronchopulmonary sequestration associated with non-immune hydrops fetalis." 05/01/1996 - "In the third case, fetal hydrops was detected at 24 weeks, when furosemide was used alone for direct fetal therapy" 07/01/1993 - "We report a case, in which direct fetal therapy by amiodarone injected into the umbilical vein during the last trimester of pregnancy was used for the treatment of fetal supraventricular tachyarrhythmia in the presence of severe hydrops fetalis" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...

Supraventricular Tachycardia 09/01/1999 - "This report suggests that direct fetal therapy by umbilical vein puncture and evacuation of effusions constitutes an effective treatment for supraventricular tachycardias with massive fetal hydrops which do not respond to transplacental treatment." 09/01/1991 - "This case suggests that direct fetal therapy is of value in the treatment of some fetuses with supraventricular tachycardia, and lends further evidence that the role of transplacental digoxin therapy is limited in the compromised fetus" 11/01/1984 - "In this report, successful fetal therapy with maternally administered digoxin and quinidine is presented in three consecutive patients with fetal supraventricular tachycardia" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
