Correlations of placental vascular anatomy and clinical outcomes in 69 monochorionic twin pregnancies

Abstract excerpt

Monochorionic monozygotic twins frequently suffer complications from the presence of vascular anastomoses in their monochorionic placentas. Also, sharing of perfusion zones may be unequal, leading to marked growth discordance. This paper analyzes four measures of perinatal outcome (gestational age at delivery, perinatal mortality, birth weight discordance, and presence/absence of hydramnios) according to the...
