Fetal Endoscopic Tracheal Intubation: Modification of the Fetal Endoscopic Tracheal Intubation Procedure to Establish an Airway in a Fetus with a Congenital Cervical Teratoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: FETI is a technique where the fetal airway is secured in-utero via intubation by percutaneous endoscopic fetal tracheoscopy under ultrasound guidance. FETI has been described in large fetal neck masses with anatomical airway compression as a feasible airway management strategy and a potential alternative to an EXIT procedure in select cases. CASE PRESENTATION: This report describes the use of a modified FETI procedure under continuous fetoscopic and ultrasound guidance, in a fetus with a large cervical teratoma causing airway displacement and compression. Following the FETI procedure, an uncomplicated caesarean section was performed. The endotracheal tube was in place at the time of birth, and a patent airway was confirmed. CONCLUSION: The modified FETI procedure described in this report represents another technique that can be used to establish an airway in fetuses with challenging upper airway anatomy, potentially mitigating the risks associated with an EXIT procedure.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
