Dear Dr. The-Hung Bui,
This was a presentation made at an IFUMB conference at Hyderabad, India.
I was asked to talk on Interventional procedures. Since CVS,
Amniocentesis and PUBS have been repeatedly covered in so many such
meetings( I have done these procedures too) , I chose to bring awareness
to some procedures that are not commonly done. I came across
coelocentesis( never done one, but I know it is possible) in the very
book you have mentioned. Bui T-H, Deprest JA, Jauniaux E, Wilson RD.
Current perspectives and new developments in ultrasound guided invasive
procedures for prenatal diagnosis and therapy. In: R. Jaffe and T-H Bui,
eds. Textbook of Fetal Ultrasound. New York & London: The Parthenon
Publishing Group, 1999, chap. 17, 259-286.
I did mention at the end of the Coelocentesis part that it is risky and
has a high risk of miscarriage. And, it has been stated in the book at
the end of the chapter on Coelocentesis that a lot of work has to be
done before this can be used routinely.
Thankyou Dr.Bui for helping me to put things in proper perpective.
With regards,
Dr.Udayakumar
