Cardiac morbidity in monochorionic twins
Twin pregnancies are at increased risk of complications and adverse outcome compared to singletons. A significant contribution to higher morbidity and mortality seen in monochorionic twins is made by cardiac complications. Abnormal cardiac development in monochorionic pregnancies can be divided into primary structural cardiac lesions (structural cardiac anomalies unrelated to the existence of T...
متن کاملDown syndrome in monochorionic twins
Down syndrome in monochorionic twins has rarely been reported. We report such a case diagnosed prenatally. Maternal serum screening was performed at 15 weeks for a twin pregnancy which indicated a risk of greater than 1:50 for Down syndrome. The review of early ultrasonography confirmed monochorionic twins. Amniocentesis at 17 weeks’ gestation was performed on one of the twin sacs, which confir...
متن کاملNeurological morbidity of monochorionic twins
Monochorionic twins (MC) are at increased risk for morbidity. The unique placenta with vascular anastomoses may create imbalance with either acute or chronic hypotension or cardiac insufficiency that will eventually affect the fetal brain. It appears that these characteristics of the MC placenta add to the already higher frequency of brain anomalies observed
متن کاملHigher Incidence of Hypospadias in Monochorionic Twins.
BACKGROUND Hypospadias is associated with twinning. The incidence of hypospadias in monochorionic and dichorionic male twins is, however, yet to be determined. METHODS All medical records of monochorionic and dichorionic twins admitted to our neonatal nursery between January 2004 and August 2013 were reviewed for the presence of hypospadias. RESULTS A total of 350 monochorionic and 303 dich...
متن کاملIntrauterine growth restriction in monochorionic-diamniotic twins.
OBJECTIVE to evaluate neonatal morbidity and mortality in monochorionic-diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancies complicated by selective intrauterine growth restriction (sIUGR) and non-selective intrauterine growth resctriction (nsIUGR). METHODS neonatal morbidity parameters and mortality were analyzed in 34 twins with IUGR (< 10th percentile on twins' growth charts): 18 with sIUGR and 16 with nsI...
