vesicoamniotic shunt

Hi Anyone had babies undergoing the vesicoamniotic shunt procedure with a successful outcome?

My twin boys suffer from megacystis, might have already damaged their kidneys to much for the procedure to help though... But if not we are going to try for it i think.

Anyone who can tell me about how the procedure went for you? Did you have healthy babies after? Did they pull the shunt many times during the pregnancy? How damaged did the kidneys end up being?

Any advice is welcomed ♥️
