The Future Begins Before Birth – Supporting Families Through Fetal Intervention

For two decades, the North American Fetal Therapy Network (NAFTNet) has united expert maternal-fetal surgeons and researchers to push the boundaries of medical science—saving unborn babies facing life-threatening conditions before they take their first breath.

They have removed deadly tumors, unblocked tiny hearts, repaired spines, and given families hope when the odds seemed impossible.

Now, as we celebrate 20 years of progress, we’re looking ahead to the next 20 years of innovation, research, and compassion that will continue transforming fetal medicine.

Join us in shaping the #NAFTNetNext20.
