Fetal anesthesia for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome and fetal hydrothorax drainage: case report
Abstract
Fetal surgery in utero is an alternative for treatable congenital malformations. Prognosis will improve with early correction. Once the surgical technique is planned, the anesthetist's knowledge of maternal and fetal physiology is crucial for the selection of the ideal anesthetic technique for each individual case, considering the type of surgical procedure and the expected degree of fetal stimulation. In this way, the optimal surgical field with maternal and fetal safety will be ensured. This article describes 1 case of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome under spinal anesthesia and sedation, and a second case of hydrothorax drainage under sedation.
