Fact-check the reference to vesicostomy; use of a catheter implies the procedure was placement of a vesicoamniotic shunt (as in the cited newspaper story), not a vesicostomy. Also, I deleted the claim that open fetal surgery has proven safe for mother and fetus; that is far too absolute. Una Smith 04:28, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
