First seen Mar 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests whether repairing a severe birth defect called complex gastroschisis while the baby is still in the womb is safe and possible. Ten pregnant women will undergo a minimally invasive fetal surgery to put the baby's intestines back inside and close the opening. The goal is to see if this approach can prevent serious problems after birth and improve survival.
