چکیده

Rupture of the fetal membranes is a common, but potentially serious complication of invasive fetal procedures. Quintero described a technique to seal the fetal membrane defect by means of a bloodpatch, usually called 'amniopatch' in this application. The successful use in two consecutive patients with ruptured membranes after a fetoscopic intervention at respectively 17 and 22 weeks' gestational age is described, together with a literature review of published experience.

Fetal membrane patch and biomimetic adhesive coacervates as a sealant for fetoscopic defects.

Iatrogenic preterm premature rupture of membranes after fetoscopic procedures affects 10-47% of patients, secondary to the non-healing nature of membranes and the separation of layers during the entry. In this study we developed an in vitro model to mimic the uterine wall-fetal membrane interface using a water column with one end sealed with human fetal membranes and poultry breast, and a defec...

Mussel-mimetic tissue adhesive for fetal membrane repair: a standardized ex vivo evaluation using elastomeric membranes.

OBJECTIVE Iatrogenic preterm premature rupture of membranes (iPPROM), the main complication of invasive interventions in the prenatal period, seriously limits the benefit of diagnostic or surgical prenatal procedures. This study aimed to evaluate preventive plugging of punctured fetal membranes in an ex vivo situation using a new mussel-mimetic tissue adhesive (mussel glue) to inhibit leakage. ...

Effects of Progesterone on Latency Period in Patients with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes during 24-34 Weeks of Pregnancy

Background & Aims: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is the leading cause of preterm birth and perinatal mortality and morbidity, and complications. The objective of the present study was to assess the effect of progesterone agents (rectal suppositories and weekly injection of 17- hydroxyprogesterone caproate) on latency period in women with PPROM. Methods: This randomized, double-...

Preterm prelabor rupture of membranes and fetal survival after minimally invasive fetal surgery: a systematic review of the literature.

OBJECTIVE Iatrogenic preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (iPPROM; <37 weeks of gestation) is a major complication of fetal surgery. Little information is available about risk factors and incidence. METHODS We systematically reviewed reported iPPROM rates, gestational age at delivery and fetal survival after representative minimally invasive antenatal procedures. RESULTS A total of 1,146, ...
