Fetoscopic laser therapy for twin-twin transfusion syndrome.
Twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) complicates approximately 1 in 5 of all monochorionic, diamniotic twin pregnancies. If of early onset and untreated, severe TTTS is associated with a dismal prognosis, with perinatal mortality rates exceeding 90%. The most controversial issue regarding the optimal treatment of TTTS has centered on the use of amniocentesis or laser until the first and only r...
متن کاملChorionic plate vascular anatomy determines the efficacy of amnioreduction therapy for twin-twin transfusion syndrome.
The objective of the study was to determine whether vascular anatomy of monochorial placenta influences the therapeutic efficacy of serial amnioreduction in chronic mid-trimester twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). Twenty-six consecutive monochorial pregnancies complicated by TTTS and treated by serial amnioreduction were studied. The placental anastomoses were delineated postnatally by perf...

متن کامل[Twin to twin transfusion syndrome].
The incidence of multiple pregnancy has increased by 1.7 times from 1980-1994. Twenty-five percent of all twins are monochorionic diamnionic. The perinatal mortality of monochorionic twins is five times greater than that found in dichorionic twins and the morbidity is eight times greater. The increase in morbidity is due to prematurity, cerebral lesions and congenital malformations. One of the ...
