Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the prognostic value of fetal serum biochemistry and fetal urine biochemistry in predicting renal outcome in lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). METHODS We retrospectively studied renal outcome following a prenatal diagnosis of LUTO in cases for which both fetal blood and fetal urine were sampled. We classified the renal outcome as either "favorable," when postnatal renal function was normal, or "adverse," in the case of postnatal chronic renal failure or when renal histological lesions were present at autopsy in the case of termination of pregnancy. A prognostic model was constructed for urine and serum separately. β2-Microglobulin was the only remaining independent predictor in fetal urine. β2-Microglobulin in serum and urine were compared by using receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS In the 50 cases included, the rate of adverse outcome was 34 of 50(68%): autopsy confirmed severity of renal disease in all 27 cases who underwent termination of pregnancy, and among the 23 live born children, 7 developed renal failure. Fetal serum and urine markers were all significantly associated with renal outcome (P < .01). The receiver operating characteristic curves for fetal serum and fetal urinary β2-microglobulin were similar (area under the curve = 0.908 versus 0.909, P = .96). CONCLUSION Fetal serum biochemistry and fetal urine biochemistry are of similar prognostic value in predicting postnatal renal outcome in fetuses with LUTO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fetal serum β2-microglobulin has been shown to predict postnatal renal outcome in cases of fetal obstructive uropathy. We assessed the value of serial measurements of fetal serum β2-microglobulin in the prediction of postnatal renal outcome. METHODS We retrospectively studied renal outcome in 42 fetuses with bilateral or low urinary tract obstruction that had fetal blood sampling on at least two occasions to assay serum levels of β2-microglobulin. Amniotic fluid volume at the time of each sampling was recorded. We classified renal outcome as either favorable (when postnatal renal function was normal) or adverse (when postnatal chronic renal failure occurred or when renal dysplasia at autopsy was noted). A β2-microglobulin cut-off of 5 mg/L and amniotic fluid index of 5 cm were used to predict postnatal renal outcome. RESULTS Renal outcome was adverse in 28 cases and favorable in 14. In 12 (28.6%) cases, fetal serum β2-microglobulin concentration differed between the first and last measurement. Prediction of postnatal renal outcome was correct in 11 of these cases based on the last β2-microglobulin measurement. The sensitivity of β2-microglobulin in predicting renal outcome was significantly higher (P = 0.005) when using the last rather than the first measurement (96.4% vs 64.3%), with similar specificity for both measurements (85.7% vs 78.6%, non-significant). The sensitivity of amniotic fluid volume was also significantly higher (P = 0.005) when using the last rather than the first measurement (75.0% vs 35.7%), with similar specificity for both measurements (64.3% vs 71.4%, non-significant). CONCLUSION Sequential measurement of serum β2-microglobulin, performed for adverse ultrasound findings, such as renal parenchymal abnormality or decreasing amniotic fluid volume, predicts postnatal renal outcome more accurately than does a single assay. This may be due to possible worsening of renal injury with increasing duration of urinary tract obstruction. Copyright © 2016 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Fetal obstructive uropathy complicated by urinary ascites: outcome and prognostic value of fetal serum β-2-microglobulin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether the prognostic value of fetal serum β-2-microglobulin is altered and whether the occurrence of fetal urinary ascites prevents kidney damage in cases of fetal obstructive uropathy with urinary ascites. METHODS This was a retrospective study of cases of fetal bilateral obstructive uropathy that occurred between 2006 and 2010, for which both fetal serum and ascites samples were sent to our laboratory for analysis. β-2-microglobulin was assayed in both fetal serum and the corresponding ascites. Renal outcome was analyzed. Histological features of the kidney in cases of termination of pregnancy and renal function of liveborn infants were recorded. RESULTS Fourteen cases with analysis of fetal serum and fetal ascites in a context of urinary obstruction were included. Renal outcome was unfavorable in eight cases (57%) and favorable in six (43%). When fetal serum β-2-microglobulin was < 5 mg/L, renal outcome was favorable in all cases (4/4). When fetal serum β-2-microglobulin was ≥ 5 mg/L, 8/10 cases (80%) had an unfavorable renal outcome (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 66%). CONCLUSION Fetal serum β-2-microglobulin reliably predicts postnatal renal outcome in obstructive uropathy complicated by urinary ascites. Moreover, urine extravasation does not seem to protect fetal renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study pregnancy outcomes and fetal renal prognosis markers in cases of exposure to renin-angiotensin system blockers. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of a series of 21 patients exposed to blockers of the renin-angiotensin system during pregnancy. Two markers were prenatally studied, fetal serum β2-microglobulin and amniotic fluid volume. Poor renal prognosis evaluation was based on postnatal glomerular filtration rate or on the presence of renal histologic lesions. RESULTS Of the 21 fetuses, only one had a normal postnatal renal function at birth (oligohydramnios regression and normal β2-microglobulin). All fetuses with persistent oligohydramnios or β2-microglobulin ≥ 5 mg/L presented an adverse renal outcome. CONCLUSION Exposure to renin-angiotensin system blockers complicated by oligohydramnios is associated with a very poor outcome. We propose a prenatal management based on amniotic fluid volume monitoring and fetal serum β2-microglobulin. However, our preliminary results have to be confirmed by a larger study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report the experience with fetal cystoscopy and laser fulguration of posterior urethral values (PUV) for severe lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). METHODS Between July 2006 and December 2008, fetal cystoscopy was offered to 23 patients whose fetuses presented with severe LUTO, favorable urinary analysis and gestational age <26 weeks. Fetal urinary biochemistry was evaluated before and after cystoscopy. All infants were followed 6-12 months after birth. Abnormal renal function was defined when serum creatinine higher than 50 micromol/L (2 Standard Deviation) or the necessity of dialysis or renal transplantation. Autopsy was always performed whenever fetal or neonatal deaths occurred. RESULTS Eleven patients decided to undergo fetal therapy and 12 elected to continue with expectant observation. There was no difference between both groups in gestation age at diagnosis and referral examinations. Urethral atresia was diagnosed in 4/11 (36.4%) fetuses by fetal cystoscopy. At 26 weeks, fetuses that were managed expectantly presented with worse urinary biochemistry results (p < 0.05). Survival rates and percentage of infants with normal renal function were significantly higher in the cystoscopic group than in the expectant group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous fetal cystoscopy is feasible using a thinner special cannula for prenatal diagnosis and therapy of LUTO. Prenatal laser ablation of the PUV under cystoscopy may prevent renal function deterioration improving postnatal outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether fetal urinary sodium and chloride provide clinically useful information in addition to ultrasound in bilateral obstructive uropathy. METHODS Sonographic features and urinary concentrations of sodium and chloride were evaluated in fetuses with bilateral obstructive uropathy. After a minimum of 12 months of postnatal follow-up, cases that developed increased serum creatinine (greater than 50 micromol/L) were compared with those that did not. RESULTS Of the cases studied, 16/35 died perinatally, all showing anamnios and markedly elevated urinary electrolytes. Of the survivors, ten maintained normal postnatal serum creatinine, whereas nine did not. The frequency of reduced amniotic fluid/olygohydramnios was higher in cases that developed increased serum creatinine (four out of nine) than in those that did not (nil). Sodium above the 95th percentile was 100% specific and 44% sensitive to predict an increased serum creatinine during early infancy, while chloride above the 95th percentile was 70% specific and 56% sensitive. All seven cases in which urinary sodium was elevated and/or amniotic fluid volume was reduced developed renal failure. CONCLUSION Urine sampling slightly improved renal function prediction, but this must be balanced against its fetal risks.
