Article Synopsis
- - The case involves a twin pregnancy with one twin (twin B) diagnosed via antenatal MRI with a large cystic neck mass that negatively affects the airway and the upper limb.
- - Due to the risk of airway obstruction for twin B, a multidisciplinary team decided to perform an EXIT (ex utero intrapartum treatment) procedure.
- - The EXIT procedure was successfully executed by first delivering twin A, then using an external cephalic version to assist in the delivery of twin B’s head, followed by intubation while the mother maintained circulation.
We investigated the relationship of preconception maternal retinal vasculature and utero-fetoplacental circulation in ensuing pregnancy. Embedded in a hospital-based, prospective preconception cohort, 396 women with a singleton live birth were included for analysis. We assessed retinal vascular caliber during preconception phase and retrieved ultrasonogram results documenting utero-fetoplacental circulatory indices using Doppler ultrasonography and documented them at 18-21 weeks, 24-28 weeks, and 32-34 weeks where available.

Introduction: Fetal imaging has improved with the development of faster magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences, obviating the requirement for sedation. It is useful in characterising abnormality of the central nervous system in fetuses with abnormal or equivocal antenatal ultrasound findings. We reviewed all cases of fetal brain and spine MRI performed in our institution.

Clinical Picture: We report a case of recurrent fetal hydrops in a multigravida with no medical history of note.
