What this Trial Is About
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if serial amnioinfusions can improve the chances of survival for fetuses with severe kidney problems that cause low amniotic fluid (anhydramnios). Low amniotic fluid can affect lung development and may lead to serious health issues for the fetus. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Can serial amnioinfusion increase the chances of survival for these fetuses? * Does this procedure improve chances of survival until dialysis and/or kidney transplant? Participants will: * Receive regular amnioinfusions, which is a procedure that adds fluid to the amniotic cavity. * Undergo monitoring to check the effects on the fetus and mother. This study will help researchers understand if amnioinfusion is a useful treatment for fetal kidney problems and may provide valuable information for similar cases in the future.
