Resolution of Preeclampsia After Single Selective Termination in Twins: A Case Series and Literature Review. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Preeclampsia significantly contributes to maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality, with twin pregnancies increasing this risk. Severe preeclampsia often requires pregnancy termination to protect maternal health. We report two cases of IVF‐conceived twin pregnancies complicated by early preeclampsia. The first case involved a 34 year‐old

Ex-Utero Intrapartum Treatment-to-Airway for Obstructing Fetal Neck Masses: A Singular Methodology for Monochorionic and Dichorionic Twin Pregnancies

American Journal of Perinatology Reports, 2023
Fetal airway obstruction in one twin of a diamniotic pregnancy presents unique challenges. Very few cases of ex-utero-intrapartum-treatment (EXIT) procedures for twin pregnancy have been reported and only in dichorionic pregnancies.

sFlt-1, Not PlGF, Is Related to Twin Gestation Choronicity in the First and Third Trimesters of Pregnancy

Diagnostics, 2021
Background: Preeclampsia occurs more often in dichorionic than in monochorionic twin pregnancy. We hypothesize that serum concentrations of biomarkers: placental growth factor (PlGF), serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1), and endoglin (Eng ...
