Fetal therapy is a therapeutic intervention used to correct or treat a fetal anomaly or condition. In almost every case where fetal therapy is needed, the fetus’s life is at risk due to the diagnosed condition.

Jackson Health System provides patients with the latest and most advanced resources in the field of prenatal diagnosis and therapy at the Jackson Memorial Hospital Women's Hospital Center. Under the leadership of world-renowned surgeon Dr. Rubén Quintero, and in affiliation with the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, the Fetal Therapy Center offers minimally invasive techniques that can successfully treat previously untreatable life-threatening conditions diagnosed in utero (while the baby is still in the womb).

Conditions treated at the center include erythroblastosis fetalis, congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), urinary tract obstruction, hydrops fetalis, Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), selective intrauterine growth restriction in monochorionic twins and Acardiac twins (twin reversed-arterial perfusion [TRAP] sequence).
