What this trial studies

This observational study aims to implement a standardized prenatal management protocol for fetuses diagnosed with lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). Pregnant women carrying affected fetuses will undergo a comprehensive evaluation at a specialized Fetal Center, including ultrasounds, genetic counseling, and consultations with a multidisciplinary team. The study will also involve the collection of maternal and fetal samples for analysis and future research. The goal is to validate this management approach based on existing scientific evidence.
