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

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
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
