Anchoring device to prevent membrane detachment and preterm prelabor rupture of membranes after fetal intervention.

We successfully anchored amniotic membranes to the underlying myometrium using a suturing device, both ex vivo and in vivo. Further studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of the device and to determine whether it can successfully anchor fetal membranes percutaneously in human patients. © 2024 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
