- Chorionic Villous sampling ( CVS)
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a prenatal test performed in earlypregnancy (10-13 weeks) that is used to detect birth defects, genetic diseases, and other problems during pregnancy. During the test, a small sample of cells (called chorionic villi) is taken from the placenta where it attaches to the wall of the uterus.

- Ectopic pregnancy Medical management
An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg attaches itself in a place other than the uterus. Unruptured live ectopic pregnancies of many types are successfully managed without surgical intervention through Ultrasound-guided local injection of KCl or Methotrexate.
- Selective Fetocide
It is indicated in a multiple pregnancy, in which one foetus presents with anomalies incompatible with life, the procedure reduces the risk to mother health and improves the outcome on the remaining foetus.
