Twin anemia polycythemia sequence in a dichorionic diamniotic pregnancy: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Yeungnam Medical Science, 2022
Complications related to the vascular anastomosis of the placental vessels in monochorionic twins are fatal. The clinical syndromes of feto-fetal transfusion include twin anemia polycythemia sequence (TAPS), twin-twin transfusion syndrome, and twin ...

[Acute fetofetal transfusion in dichorionic twins: a clinical case report].

La Pediatria medica e chirurgica : Medical and surgical pediatrics, 1993
Fetofetal transfusion is due to the twin to twin blood shunt caused by vascular anastomoses. It has been suggested that two types of FFT exist: a chronic form existing during pregnancy, and an acute form occurring only during parturition. Cross-circulation may be demonstrated in monochorionic as well as dichorionic placentas.

Twin-twin transfusion syndrome - a University Hospital experience with intrauterine treatment

Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões, 2021
Introduction: twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), defined by combination of polyhydramnios-oligohydramnios, is the most prevalent (5%-35%) of the abnormalities due to placental vascular anastomoses and the most lethal (80%-100% mortality) if ...

Changes in structural brain development after selective fetal growth restriction in monochorionic twins

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 59, Issue 6, Page 747-755, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives Fetal growth restriction (FGR) may alter brain development permanently, resulting in lifelong structural and functional changes. However, in studies addressing this research question, FGR singletons have been compared primarily to matched appropriately grown singletons, a design which is inherently biased by differences in genetic ...

Continuous positive airway pressure treatment may negatively affect auditory maturation in preterm infants

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 110, Issue 11, Page 2976-2983, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices generate loud noise, which might harm auditory function and maturation. The function of auditory pathways can be examined by using brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) and brainstem audiometry (BA) recordings.

Identification and management of fetal anaemia: a practical guide

The Obstetrician &Gynaecologist, Volume 23, Issue 3, Page 196-205, July 2021., 2021
Key content Fetal anaemia can be caused by alloimmune or infectious red cell destruction, disorders of fetal red cell production, fetal haemorrhage and as a complication of monochorionic multifetal pregnancy. A fetus at risk from maternal alloimmunisation can be detected by maternal serum screening for red cell antibodies and by fetal ultrasonography ...
