While many vein of Galen patients do very well with conventional treatment after birth, there remains a significant fraction who will develop severe cardiopulmonary symptoms soon after delivery, and this subgroup has a high risk of morbidity and mortality, even with expert care. An IRB and FDA-approved clinical trial of fetal brain intervention/embolization for vein of Galen malformations at Boston Children’s Hospital is now open for recruitment.
