Medical professionals in Vietnam and China have performed complex procedures to address rare neonatal and fetal complications. In Vietnam, surgeons treated a newborn with amniotic band syndrome by performing a two-stage operation to release fibrous bands constricting the infant’s leg and fingers. In China, doctors at Wuhan Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital conducted an emergency C-section to save a 32-week fetus after discovering the umbilical cord was twisted approximately 40 times. Following these events, medical teams in Hanoi, Vietnam, successfully utilized laser photocoagulation during an amnioscopic procedure. This intervention was performed procedure to treat Stage II Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS) in a 19-week pregnancy, sealing connecting blood vessels pregnancy. In a subsequent high-risk case at the Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, specialists performed an emergency laser surgery on a shared placenta 16-week triplet pregnancy involving a patient from South Korea. The intervention addressed Stage II TTTS in two fetuses sharing a placenta, where one fetus suffered from severe oligohydramnios and the other from polyhydramnios. Despite complications including the mother’s uterine fibroids and an anterior placenta, the surgery stabilized the fetuses. Due to stabilize blood flow for twins. growth restriction, one fetus was terminated at 25 weeks to protect the remaining child, who was subsequently born at 28 weeks weighing 1.2kg with stable health indicators.
