UOG video abstract: Growth velocity of fetal sacrococcygeal teratoma as predictor of perinatal morbidity and mortality
New UOG Journal video abstract on a multicenter study aiming to identify prenatal predictors of poor perinatal outcome, defined as intrauterine fetal demise, termination of pregnancy, neonatal demise or severe compromise (development of hemorrhagic shock), in fetuses with isolated sacrococcygeal teratoma.
