A Ludomirski, and R Nemiroff, and A Johnson, and G G Ashmead, and S Weiner, and R J Bolognese

Direct access to fetal blood during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy opens new fields of prenatal diagnosis and in utero fetal treatment. Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling, a method that involves ultrasonographically guided needle insertion into the umbilical vein, appears to have an acceptable complication rate. This technique has tremendous potential for use in evaluating fetal status.
