Amniocentesis and Risk of Fetal Loss in Dichorionic‐Diamniotic Twin Pregnancy: A Case‐Control Study
ABSTRACT Objective There is a paucity of data regarding the risk of fetal loss due to invasive prenatal diagnosis in twins. The aim of the present study is to assess the rate of amniocentesis‐related fetal loss in uncomplicated dichorionic‐diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies. Methods Retrospective observational case‐control study.
