NAFTNet Webinar Series

The NAFTNet Challenge: Complex Fetal Therapy Cases Through the Fellow Lens

Wednesday, March 25, 2026
6:00–7:30 PM ET

Join NAFTNet for a dynamic, fellow-led case conference highlighting complex and challenging fetal therapy cases from NAFTNet centers. This interactive session offers a unique opportunity to learn from real-world clinical scenarios through the perspective of trainees, guided by experienced faculty mentors and an expert panel.

Selected fellows will present cases that illustrate diagnostic uncertainty, evolving management strategies, and high-stakes decision-making in fetal therapy. Each case will prompt discussion on clinical reasoning, multidisciplinary collaboration, and lessons learned.


Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Analyze complex fetal therapy cases using a structured, case-based approach
  • Recognize diagnostic challenges and evolving clinical findings that impact fetal therapy decision-making
  • Discuss management strategies for high-risk and atypical fetal therapy scenarios
  • Evaluate the role of multidisciplinary collaboration in complex fetal therapy cases
  • Apply lessons learned from real-world cases to future clinical practice and training
