She presented to us at 33+5 weeks as an emergency with Diamniotic dichorionic twin gestation. Her LMP was on 10.08.2015, and her EDD was on 17.05.2016. She had hypothyroidism, along with oligohydramnios with the baby being Intra Uterine Gro...

A dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy was obtained by in vitro fertilization, in a 31 year old primigravida, with a history of endometriosis and antiphospholipid syndrome, revealed by several thrombo-embolic events on treatment by low-molecularweight heparin. The pregnancy was complicated by threatened preterm labor at 29 and 32 weeks’ gestation and was hospitalised for tocolytic (atosiban) a...

BACKGROUND Assisted reproduction (ART) contributes to world-wide increases of twin pregnancies, in turn raising prematurity risks. Whether characteristics of ART cycles, resulting in twin gestations, can predict prematurity risks was the subject of this study. METHODS One-hundred-and-six women, ages 20 to 39 years, with consecutive dichorionic-diamniotic (DC/DA) twin gestations were retrospec...

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...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the perinatal outcome in monochorionic diamniotic (MD) twin pregnancies complicated by amniotic fluid discordance (AFD) adjoining twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). METHODS An observational study of 84 consecutive MD twin pregnancies complicated by AFD that resembled TTTS was conducted. AFD adjoining TTTS was defined by a maximal vertical pocket of am...
