Fetal intervention specialists and pediatric cardiologists from Tu Du Hospital and Children’s Hospital 1 successfully performed a complex in-utero heart procedure on May 28 for a 22-week-old fetus of a Singaporean woman diagnosed with aortic atresia, a severe congenital heart defect. This was the ninth fetal cardiac intervention conducted in Ho Chi Minh City and was considered the most technically challenging to date due to the fetus’s very early gestational age and the critical nature of the condition.
