Zusammenfassung

Aims: Congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) from laryngeal atresia is a rare and life-threatening condition in the fetus. Percutaneous fetoscopic decompression of the congested lungs may allow for normalization of heart/lung size relationship and life-saving improvements of fetal hemodynamics. Patient & Method: Percutaneous fetoscopic and ultrasound-guided decompression of the fetal trachea was attempted under general maternofetal anesthesia in a hydropic human fetus with CHAOS from laryngeal atresia at 19+2 weeks of gestation. In order to avoid injury to an anterior placenta, the procedure could b…
