  • Title: [Intrauterine neurosurgical intervention in a case of congenital hydrocephalus].
    Author: Huber Z, Spaczyński M.
    Journal: Neurol Neurochir Pol; 1987; 21(4-5):357-61. PubMed ID: 3328106.
    Abstract:
    The authors point to new perspectives of fetosurgery development in Poland describing a case of hydrocephalus with intracranial haematoma treated by an intrauterine procedure under USG control. After birth the newborn was subjected to an operation for coexistent myelomeningocele and ventriculo-atrial shunt was implanted for prevention of secondary hydrocephalus development. Attention is called to the necessity of observation of indications to these operations, and precise ultrasonographic teratological diagnosis. Legal and deontological problems created by fetosurgery are discussed.
