Intrafetal laser therapy is a feasible treatment for different fetal conditions: a systematic review

Discussion: Our analysis suggests that IFL is a feasible technique for the management of different fetal conditions. However, the overall risk of PTB and its related morbidity and mortality, ranges from 12.5% in BPS to 87.5% in SCT. This could aid in decision making during prenatal counselling. However final perinatal outcome depends on the severity of the disease itself.
