36 F t l i t Fetal interventions ti Lessons learned from Boston experience Ideal GA for procedures: Valvuloplasties: 22 to 30 weeks S Septostomy: 28 to 33 weeks 8 k Unfortunately most of the cases are referred too late!

37 F t l i t Fetal interventions ti Lessons learned with time for valvuloplasty Give intracardiac epinephrine before inflating the balloon At least 3 balloon inflations (for valvuloplasties) 3 ( p ) Valve insufficiency after the procedure is a marker of success and improve with time

38 F t l i t Fetal interventions ti Other potential interventions TGA with severely restrictive PFO Tricuspid valve anomalies and restrictive PFO D i l i f TV i Device occlusion of TV in severe regurgitant i lesions

39 F t l i t Fetal interventions ti Other potential interventions Aortic valvuloplasty in HLHS CNS and coronary blood flow (better neurological outcomes and RV fxn?) + maternal hyperoxigenation* pulmonary venous return antegrade aortic flow (increase LH size?) *According to Kohl Pediatric Cardiology 2010

43 F t l i t Fetal interventions ti Conclusions Fetal interventions are feasible in experienced hands (skilled fetal specialist and pediatric interventionalist) Prenatal treatment may change the natural history of severe CHD With increasing experience, it is likely that the range of indications will be broadened. Aortic valvuloplasty in hypoplastic LV may be considered in association with maternal hyperoxygenation in selected patients
