No one sees and cares for more heterogeneous and complex rare maternal and fetal disease in pregnancy than MFM physicians. These can be life-threatening conditions for pregnant people, and when these conditions are encountered in ultrasound, be significant diagnostic dilemmas. This course aims to provide structured content and discussion around maternal and fetal diagnostic and care dilemmas for when the truly “unroutine” is encountered.

Supported by an educational grant from Janssen Biotech, Inc., administered by Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the approach to complex fetal anomaly evaluation and management.
  • Identify intersections of embryologic structures resulting in patterns of anomalies.
  • Discuss available resources for rare diseases and registries.
  • Examine images and findings for complex anomaly syndromes, including imaging pearls.
  • Discuss best care for women during pregnancy with complex diseases.
  • Develop care plans for rare diseases for multidisciplinary maternal/fetal care.
  • List key areas for determining best practices, medication safety in pregnancy, and lactation.
  • Characterize approach to patients with diseases with limited data in pregnancy.
