*SPECIAL GUEST* - Dr. Yves Ville – Part 1 of 2

This is an episode we recorded at the 2023 SMFM Conference back in February. Our special guest this week, Dr. Yves Ville, sat down with us to talk about his role and contributions to the field of fetal surgery and specifically twin-twin transfusion syndrome. In part 1 we go through the following:

• Dr. Ville’s training and the events that led up to him entering the field of fetal medicine
• Dr. Ville’s experience with laser surgery for twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS)
• The 2004 randomized trail study comparing laser surgery to amnioreduction for TTTS
• Why the trial was stopped early

Tune in next week when we continue our conversation with Dr. Ville on the outcome studies and editorials that were published after his 2004 study.
