These infants are often born prematurely and are thus at risk for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). It is not known whether fetal surgery confers an increased risk of developing severe ROP relative to published rates in standard premature populations \u226437 weeks of age grouped by birth weight (<1500 grams or \u22651500 grams).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Design<\/jats:title>\n This is a retrospective chart review.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n We reviewed the charts of 137 patients who underwent open fetal\/fetoscopic surgery from 1996\u20132004. Surgical indications included twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), myelomeningocele (MMC), congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT), cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung (CCAM), and twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence (TRAP). Of these, 17 patients had local ROP examination data. Binomial tests were performed to assess whether rates of ROP in our fetal\/fetoscopic surgery cohort were significantly different from published rates.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n There were 5 patients each with an underlying diagnosis of TTTS and MMC, 2 patients each with CDH and TRAP, and 1 patient each with SCT, CCAM, and mediastinal teratoma. The mean gestational age at surgery was 23\n 4<\/jats:sup>\n \/\n 7<\/jats:sub>\n \u00b1 2\n 3<\/jats:sup>\n \/\n 7<\/jats:sub>\n weeks, mean gestational age at birth was 30 \u00b1 2\n 5<\/jats:sup>\n \/\n 7<\/jats:sub>\n weeks, and mean birth weight was 1449 \u00b1 510 grams (610\u20132485). Compared to published rates of ROP and threshold ROP, our fetal surgery patients had significantly higher rates of ROP and threshold ROP in both the <1500 grams and the \u22651500 grams group (all p-values <0.05).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Fetal\/fetoscopic surgery appears to significantly increase the rate of ROP and threshold ROP development. Greater numbers are needed to confirm these observations.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4137\/oed.s2746","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,9,14]],"date-time":"2017-09-14T11:28:54Z","timestamp":1505388534000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The effects of Fetal Surgery on Retinopathy of Prematurity Development"],"prefix":"10.4137","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"Sudha","family":"Nallasamy","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Ophthalmology, Children's hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stefanie L.","family":"Davidson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Ophthalmology, Children's hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lori J.","family":"Howell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Holly","family":"Hedrick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alan W.","family":"Flake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Timothy M.","family":"Crombleholme","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.
