Evidence for blood chimerism in dizygotic spontaneous twin pregnancy discordant for Down syndrome

29 Jun 2006

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A monochorionic-diamniotic placenta (MCDAP) is rare in dizygotic (DZ) twinning. All reported cases have been documented in pregnancies achieved by the induction of ovulation alone or during the IVF cycle. METHODS AND RESULTS: We report a spontaneous pregnancy in a 39-year-old patient with evidence of MCDAP in DZ twins, discordant for trisomy 21. The first and second-trimester sonographic scans...
