Doctors operate on heart of a 25-week-old fetus after practicing with jello and a grape
A wire the width of a hair. A balloon just a few millimeters wide. A needle measuring 11 centimeters exactly.

These were the tools that a team of doctors in Los Angeles used to open up a narrow aortic valve in the heart of a 25-week-old fetus still growing in its mom's belly.

The procedure is known as a fetal aortic valvuloplasty. It was also a first for Southern California.

A few weeks before the doctors gathered in the operating room at CHA Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles, fetal cardiologist Dr. Jay Pruetz of Children's Hospital Los Angeles diagnosed the fetus as having severe aortic stenosis. That means the baby's aortic valve was very tight. Blood was backing up in the left ventricle of the baby's heart, keeping it from pumping normally.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women
