First trimester ultrasound screening is effective in reducing postterm labor induction rates: A randomized controlled trial

TL;DR: In this paper, the null hypothesis that first trimester ultrasound crown-rump length measurement for gestational age determination will result in no difference in the rate of induction of labor for postterm pregnancy, compared with second trimester biometry alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Management of Myelomeningocele Study: obstetrical outcomes and risk factors for obstetrical complications following prenatal surgery.

TL;DR: Pregnancy outcomes for the complete cohort confirmed initial findings: that prenatal surgery was associated with an increased risk for membrane separation, oligohydramnios, spontaneous membrane rupture, spontaneous onset of labor, and earlier gestational age at birth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrauterine repair of spina bifida: preoperative predictors of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus☆

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined which factors that are present at the time of intrauterine repair of spina bifida could predict the need for ventriculoperitoneal shunt for hydrocephalus during the first year of life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reducing perinatal complications and preterm delivery for patients undergoing in utero closure of fetal myelomeningocele: further modifications to the multidisciplinary surgical technique.

TL;DR: Early results suggest that careful attention to uterine entry, manipulation, and closure by the surgical team can result in a decreased rate of premature rupture of membranes and chorioamnion separation and can reduce early preterm delivery.
