Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Fetal Medicine
  • Anesthesiology

Background:

  • Management of fetal neck masses presenting significant airway challenges.
  • Importance of maintaining maternal-fetal circulation during urgent perinatal procedures.

Observation:

  • A 30-year-old woman at 28 weeks' gestation presented with polyhydramnios and a fetus exhibiting a large anterior neck mass.
  • Ultrasound confirmed the fetal anomaly, necessitating immediate intervention.

Findings:

  • Successful airway management was achieved using halothane general anesthesia.
  • Anesthesia facilitated uterine relaxation, preserving placental and umbilical blood flow during the procedure.

Implications:

  • The anesthetic approach provides a potential strategy for emergent perinatal surgical interventions.
  • Highlights the critical role of specialized anesthetic techniques in managing complex fetal anomalies.
