Abstract
The specialty of fetal medicine has benefited from advances in technology in recent years, improving maternal and fetal outcomes. This review considers four case studies to illustrate some of the challenging and complex pregnancies that present to this field of medicine. They demonstrate how evolving research has led to new therapies that are becoming more widely available. Appropriate case selection is a priority; risks and benefits to both mother and fetus require consideration and should be included in patient counselling.
