Treatment of placental vasculature with a neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser via fetoscopy.

Abstract

We tested the feasibility of treating placental vascular anomalies with a fetoscopically delivered neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser in pregnant ewes. This laser provided sufficient power in an amniotic fluid medium to occlude placental vessels as large as 7 mm in diameter within 6 seconds at a power density of 2000 W/cm2.
