A surgery on a fetus in utero – this is already happening however mind-blowing this may seem to those of us not following the developments in  the super-specialized fetal surgery world These surgeries get better and better but still they face an unsolvable, so far, problem of how to close the amniotic sac after the procedure. And this is serious as not closing it increases the risk of preterm birth. Here is where a bioengineer comes in who tried different solutions and came up with a suture. “The whole procedure of treating the fetus or treating the placenta we’ll not change anything about that,” Yannick Devaud, the CEO of KOVE medical Ltd says on this new episode of X-Health.show. “The surgeons will still put the straw in and do their interventions. And we come in when this is done, the straw is left in the uterus. We made our device compatible to those straws. We go inside of that straw and then deploy our magic method to place two stitches on the inside. He or she will be able to tie a knot and push the knot to finally close the defect." Listen to how you can put a suture on an amniotic sac, that is not particularly, well, stitchable on Apple Podcasts https://rebrand.ly/l6c218m on Spotify https://rebrand.ly/219xiu4 or wherever you listen to your podcasts #fetalsurgery #obstetrics #fetalmedicine #spinabifida #prenatalcare #futureofhealthcare #swissstartups #xhealth BioEntrepreneurship & Innovation (BEI) program
