Advancements in medical science have paved the way for unprecedented interventions within the realm of intrauterine and fetal surgery. This review explores the pivotal role of anesthesia in these intricate procedures, delving into the nuances of anaesthetic techniques, challenges, and advancements. Fetal surgery involves medical interventions performed on a developing foetus while it is still in the womb. The types of fetal surgery can vary based on the medical condition or anomaly being addressed. The review delineates the primary objectives of this comprehensive analysis: to elucidate the evolving landscape of anesthesia for intrauterine and fetal surgery, to present an overview of established and innovative anesthesia modalities, and to underscore the collaboration between multidisciplinary teams in achieving successful outcomes. Additionally, the review provides a comprehensive analysis of established and emerging anesthesia methods utilized in fetal surgery. It examines the delicate balance between maternal comfort and fetal well-being, discussing the challenges associated with achieving optimal uterine relaxation and fetal immobility.
