De Paepe M, Shapiro S, Young L, Luks F
Placenta . 2014 Dec; 36(2):213-20. PMID: 25492576
Introduction: We established reference values for placental weight, birth weight, and fetal:placental weight ratio (FPR) (a possible index of placental functional efficiency) in monochorionic and dichorionic twin gestations. Methods: Placental...

De Paepe M, Shapiro S, Hanley L, Chu S, Luks F
Placenta . 2011 Aug; 32(11):901-5. PMID: 21864904
Background: Non-central cord insertion has been associated with diminished chorionic vascular distribution in singleton placentas. The choriovascular correlates of peripheral cord insertion in diamniotic-monochorionic twin placentas remain undetermined. Aim: To...

Luks F
Acta Chir Belg . 2010 Dec; 110(5):517-20. PMID: 21158326
An explosion is the sudden release of energy and its radial propagation through air, solid structures and living tissue. Treatment of blast injuries is complex and combines the principles of...

De Paepe M, Shapiro S, Young L, Luks F
Placenta . 2010 Mar; 31(5):380-6. PMID: 20303588
Up to 21% of diamniotic-monochorionic twin pregnancies are complicated by severe birth weight discordance in the absence of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, a serious condition termed 'selective' birth weight discordance. While...

De Paepe M, Shapiro S, Greco D, Luks V, Abellar R, Luks C, et al.
Placenta . 2010 Jan; 31(4):269-76. PMID: 20064658
Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a multifactorial disorder that develops in 9-15% of diamniotic-monochorionic twin gestations. While the pathogenesis of TTTS remains poorly understood, unbalanced deep artery-to-vein (AV) anastomoses have...

Luks F, Carr S, Feit L, Rubin L
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med . 2004 Feb; 14(5):333-7. PMID: 14986808
Background: Fetal medicine is a new and evolving specialty. Complex fetal conditions may require the multidisciplinary input of clinicians from many different specialties. Methods: Referral of fetal patients was made...

Surg Endosc . 2003 Dec; 18(2):242-5. PMID: 14691709
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate prospectively whether laparoscopic (LA) and open appendectomy (OA) are equally safe and feasible in the treatment of pediatric appendicitis. Methods: A...

Tomicic J, Luks F, Shalon L, Tracy T
Eur J Pediatr Surg . 2002 May; 12(2):107-10. PMID: 12015654
Gastrostomy is a common procedure in children. Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is less traumatic than open surgery, but carries a higher risk in small children. We report our experience with...

Luks F, Carr S, Ponte B, Rogg J, Tracy Jr T
Am J Obstet Gynecol . 2001 Aug; 185(1):216-9. PMID: 11483931
Our purpose was to illustrate the feasibility of preoperative planning with magnetic resonance imaging, 3-dimensional reconstruction, and volume-rendering techniques in twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome treated by endoscopic laser ablation of communicating...
