Beschreibung:
<jats:p><i>Objective:</i> To alleviate congenital high airway obstruction syndrome (CHAOS) from laryngeal atresia by percutaneous minimally-invasive fetoscopic tracheal decompression using laser. <i>Methods:</i> The procedure was performed via one trocar under general maternofetal anesthesia in a human fetus with CHAOS from laryngeal atresia at 21+6 weeks of gestation. <i>Results:</i> Normalization of the lung-heart size relationship was observed within days after the procedure. The fetus was delivered by ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) in order to perform a tracheotomy at 31+1 weeks of gestation and survived hospital treatment to discharge. <i>Conclusions:</i> Percutaneous minimally-invasive fetoscopic decompression of the fetal trachea via a single trocar is feasible in human fetuses with CHAOS from laryngeal atresia.</jats:p>
