Fetofetal transfusion in triplets. [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood: Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 1995 A case of fetofetal transfusion syndrome (FFTS) in a monochorionic triplet pregnancy, in which all three fetuses shared a common circulation, is reported. All babies were born alive, although two died within two days of delivery. This case highlights the problem of FFTS with accompanying high perinatal morbidity and mortality in naturally occurring ...

Multicystic encephalomalacia and gastrointestinal injury following single fetal death in first trimester and subsequent fetofetal transfusion syndrome in a monochorionic triplet pregnancy: a case report [PDF]
BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2019 Background Monochorionic multifetal pregnancies are at increased risk of adverse perinatal outcome because of placental vascular anastomoses. We present a case of multicystic encephalomalacia and gastrointestinal injury in two surviving fetuses following

Fetofetal transfusion syndrome: do the neonatal criteria apply in utero? [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1990 Thirteen fetuses (five twin, one triplet) were compromised by fetofetal transfusion syndrome in six pregnancies, five in the mid trimester, and one in the third trimester. This diagnosis, which was suspected because of ultrasound findings of discordant growth, discordant amniotic fluid volumes, concordant external genitalia, and monochorial ...

Comparison of Prenatal and Neonatal Outcomes of Selective Fetal Growth Restriction in Monochorionic Twin Pregnancies with or Without Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome After Radiofrequency Ablation [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022 Background: This study aimed to investigate and compare the prenatal and neonatal outcomes of monochorionic twin pregnancies complicated with fetal growth restriction (sFGR) with or without twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) after cord occlusion by

Reversal of Fetofetal Transfusion Syndrome in a Monochorionic Triamniotic Triplet: A Case Report. [PDF]
CureusIn monochorionic multiple pregnancies, each fetus has its own amniotic sac but shares a single placenta. Along the placental surface, fetal vessels not only supply blood individually but also form anastomoses that cross between sacs, creating shared circulation.

Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome undergoing laser surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Acta Obstet Gynecol ScandIncidence of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction among TTTS pregnancies is 6% (68% had functional pulmonary stenosis and 32% had pulmonary atresia). Significant prenatal associations were TTTS stage III–IV and ductus venosus a‐wave reversal. Survival was comparable to those without outflow obstruction.

Perinatal outcomes following fetoscopic laser surgery for early twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome: Systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Acta Obstet Gynecol ScandAlthough gestational age at delivery was 3 weeks earlier in twin‐to‐twin transfusion syndrome with FLS at <18 weeks, there was no difference in outcomes, including very early preterm birth, premature rupture of membranes and survival with similar findings in the subset that underwent laser surgery at <16 weeks.
