WS10-02Nuchal translucency in multiple pregnancies

Nuchal translucency in multiple pregnancies.

AIM To evaluate the prevalence of increased nuchal translucency (NT) in multiple pregnancies and its relation to fetal karyotype and pregnancy outcome. METHODS We measured fetal nuchal translucency (NT) in 6,338 women pregnant from 10+3 to 13+6 weeks by ultrasound and evaluated the prevalence of NT=95th centile in 115 multiple pregnancies, including 100 pairs of twins (70 dichorionic and 30 m...

Outcome of pregnancies with increased nuchal translucency

Methods A total of 1490 pregnant women were assessed for first trimester ultrasonography. They had routinely measured crown-rump length (CRL) and nuchal translucency (NT) for screening for Down syndrome between 11 and 14 weeks of gestation. Cases with a NT≥3 mm were counselled further regarding the risk of chromosomal abnormality and prenatal diagnosis by fetal karyotyping. A complete follow-up...

Onm-11: Review of Multiple Pregnancies

In Multipregnancies, The careful control of Number of follicles in stimulation cycles and Number of embryos transferred in ART cycles is so important. Just twin pregnancies are reason for racial death (12- 15%). The risk for CP in twin pregnancies is 8 times more and for Triple is 47 times more than simple ones.Approximately all prenatal problems increase in multiple pregnancies and therefore t...

Pnm-23: Ultrasound Evaluation of Multiple Pregnancies

Over the past 25 years the rate of twin and higher - order multifetal birth have increased between 1980 and 2005. The twining rate rose from 18.9 to 32.1 per 1000 live birth. Multifetal gestations are at high risk of fetaland complication such as; growth restricted fetal death, LBW and cerebral palasy. Maternal complication are that also increased such as: preeclampsia, diabetes, maternal death...
