RESUMEN
The ex-utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedure was originally developed to reverse tracheal occlusion in fetuses with severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia that underwent fetal tracheal occlusion. The EXIT procedure has since been applied to a wide range of indications, but the primary indication remains securing a patent airway and providing respiratory support in fetuses with anticipated difficult airways. The authors review perinatal management of the anticipated difficult airway and their single-institution's experience with the EXIT procedure.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a common and potentially fatal condition. Despite existing treatments, recurrence rates and complications remain high. Understanding the pathophysiology of thrombus formation is crucial for developing effective therapies. This narrative review provides an overview of the critical elements of acute and chronic DVT, presents a theoretical framework for understanding thrombus formation, and discusses potential implications for therapeutic interventions. In addition, a hypothesis of thrombus formation is formulated, encompassing all elements described in this work.
