Anhydramnios secondary to anuria before 22 weeks of gestational age and congenital bilateral renal agenesis before 26 weeks of gestational age are collectively referred to as early-pregnancy renal anhydramnios. Early-pregnancy renal anhydramnios occurs in at least 1 in 2000 pregnancies and is considered universally fatal when left untreated because of severe pulmonary hypoplasia precluding ex utero survival The Renal Anhydramnios Fetal Therapy (RAFT) trial is a nonrandomized, nonblinded, multicenter clinical trial designed to assess the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of amnioinfusions for patients with pregnancies complicated by early-pregnancy renal anhydramnios. The primary objective of this study is to determine the proportion of neonates surviving to successful dialy
