- Abdominal wall defects
- Amniotic band syndrome
- Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO)
- Congenital airway obstruction
- Congenital heart defects
- Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM/CCAM)
- Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)
- Esophageal or intestinal atresias
- Fetal chylothorax
- Fetal lymphatic malformations
- Fetal teratomas and other masses or tumors
- Myelomeningocele (MMC), or open spina bifida
- Selective growth restriction in a twin pregnancy
