Hydrostatic and osmotic pressure gradients produce manifestations of fetofetal transfusion syndrome in a computerized model of monochorial twin pregnancy

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1996
In spite of recent advances in the assessment and treatment of fetofetal transfusion syndrome, its underlying mechanism remains controversial. We aimed to determine whether the clinical features of fetofetal transfusion syndrome could be explained by unidirectional or bidirectional intertwin transfusion along placental vascular anastomoses.We ...

[Twin pregnancies with fetofetal transfusion syndrome].

Zeitschrift fur Geburtshilfe und Perinatologie, 1990
During an observation period of 10 years 30 cases (11%) of twin transfusion syndrome were observed in a collective of 286 twin pregnancies at the University Women's Clinic Heidelberg. Typical symptoms of a twin transfusion syndrome as polyhydramnios, hydrops fetalis, polyserositis, disparity in fetal growth of the twins and pathological CTGs were ...

Multiple thromboembolic events in fetofetal transfusion syndrome in triplets contributing to the understanding of pathogenesis of hydranencephaly in combination with polymicrogyria

Human Pathology, 2006
Over the last 180 years, several theories concerning the origin of hydranencephaly have been proposed with an emphasis on infectious, aplastic, and vascular etiologies. In this report, we present a case of triplets with fetofetal transfusion syndrome of which 2 fetuses (1 and 2) developed almost similar hydranencephaly, whereas the third exhibited the ...

Multicystic encephalomalacia following intrauterine single fetal death in second-trimester and subsequent fetofetal transfusion syndrome in monochorionic twin pregnancy: A case report

Journal of Clinical Images and Medical Case Reports, 2023
Multicystic encephalomalacia is a condition of cerebral necrosis followed by the formation of cystic lesions of varying sized starting from the periventricular area and may extending to the cerebral cortex. This disorder may happens in surviving cotwins after the second and third-trimester intrauterine fetal death of one twin in monochorionic ...

Incidence and impact of perioperative complications in 175 fetoscopy-guided laser coagulations of chorionic plate anastomoses in fetofetal transfusion syndrome before 26 weeks of gestation

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2005
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the perioperative complications in fetoscopy-guided laser therapy in fetofetal transfusion syndrome.Details of fetofetal transfusion syndrome cases who were delivered between 1999 and 2004 in a single center were reviewed retrospectively.One hundred seventy-five procedures were performed percutaneously with the

Severe gyration and migration disorder in fetofetal transfusion syndrome: two case reports and a review of the literature on the neurological outcome of children with lesions on neuroimaging

Child's Nervous System, 2017
Fetofetal transfusion syndrome is a dreaded cause of morbidity and mortality in monochorionic pregnancies.We present two pairs of twins one of which we have followed for more than 6 years. The donors suffer from cerebral palsy, orofacial, and motor problems, and both are significantly smaller than their recipient twins.

[Fetofetal transfusion syndrome in twin pregnancy with prune belly syndrome].

Zeitschrift fur Geburtshilfe und Perinatologie, 1987
The authors report on a twin pregnancy with one phenotypically normal twin and one with Prune-Belly-syndrome. Since a severe urethral obstruction-malformation complex was apparent, a premature vaginal delivery was aimed for. A pathologic CTG of the healthy twin, with silent and sinusoidal graph pattern, rendered a primary cesarean section necessary in ...

[Maternal and fetal digoxin level in fetofetal transfusion syndrome (FFTS)].

Zeitschrift fur Geburtshilfe und Neonatologie, 2000
Even though invasive intrauterine techniques for the treatment of TTTS such as punction of amniotic fluid and laser coagulation of placental vascular anastomoses are established methods in specialized centers, invasive methods are not always sufficiently successful. In conservative treatment of TTTS oral or intravenous maternal digoxin therapy in order
