Over the years, the application and complications of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in selective fetal reduction for complex pregnancies have been increasingly documented. Despite its rising use in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, the cutaneous complications of RFA have not been commonly reported. Here, we present a case of cutaneous thermal injury to the fetus likely secondary to intrauterine RFA for fetal reduction.
