    Context:

    • Fetal anomalies requiring intervention
    • Challenges in fetal manipulation during procedures

    Purpose:

    • To describe a modified Wenner decapitation technique
    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of using a guitar string for fetal decapitation

    Summary:

    • A modified Wenner decapitation technique utilizing a guitar string as the cutting instrument is detailed.
    • The technique was evaluated based on 23 cases from medical literature.
    • The guitar string (6-degree string) method was found to be simple, easy to perform, and harmless to the mother.

    Impact:

    • Provides a minimally invasive and accessible option for fetal decapitation.
    • Offers a potentially safer alternative to existing methods, reducing maternal risk.
    • Contributes to the understanding of effective fetal intervention strategies.
