Successful Treatment of Twin—Twin Transfusion Syndrome by Occlusion of Placental Vessel Anastomoses Using Enbucrilate

Successful treatment of twin-twin transfusion syndrome by occlusion of placental vessel anastomoses using enbucrilate.

OBJECTIVE Twin-twin transfusion syndrome is a serious obstetric complication unique to monochorionic twin gestations. Occlusion of vessel anastomoses is recommended to improve the perinatal outcome. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old, gravida 1, woman had a monochorionic twin pregnancy which was found to be affected by twin-twin transfusion syndrome at 26 weeks' gestation.

Selective Fetoscopic Laser Photocoagulation of Superficial Placental Anastomoses for the Treatment of Severe Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome

OBJECTIVE To report our initial institutional experience with fetoscopic laser photocoagulation of placental anastomoses in severe twin-twin transfusion syndrome using a 1.0 mm endoscope. METHODS Between July 2006 and June 2008, 19 monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies complicated by severe TTTS (Quintero stages III and IV) underwent fetoscopic laser therapy. Perinatal data were prospecti...
