Abstract

Two fetuses with obstructive uropathy characterized by striking oligohydramnios and dilatation of the urinary collecting system were identified by ultrasound and treated by percutaneous insertion of a long-term vesicoamniotic silicone rubber shunt. Both fetuses were < 16 weeks' gestation at diagnosis and < 18 weeks at treatment. One fetus was delivered at 35 weeks and is alive and well; the other died early in the neonatal period at 31 weeks with pulmonary hypoplasia.
