Neurocognitive outcome of monochorionic twins with different birth weights [PDF]

, 2012
M.D.Background: Although the long term effect of intrauterine growth restriction has been assessed in a number of singleton studies, they all suffer from multiple confounding effects. A model that utilises monozygotic twins may markedly reduce the effect

Major discordant structural anomalies in monochorionic twins : spectrum and outcomes

, 2018
Monochorionic twins, resulting from a single fertilized egg giving rise to two separate embryos, are monozygotic and considered genetically identical. However, discordant phenotypes have been reported in monozygotic twins.

Predictive value of maternal serum placental growth factor levels for discordant fetal growth in twins: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Accurate prenatal recognition of discordant fetal growth in twins is critical for deciding suitable management strategies. We explored the predictive value of the level of maternal second-trimester placental growth factor (PLGF) as a novel ...

Society for Maternal‐Fetal Medicine Special Statement: Updated checklists for management of monochorionic twin pregnancy

Pregnancy
Approximately 20% of twin pregnancies are monochorionic—either monochorionic/diamniotic (MC/DA) or monochorionic/monoamniotic (MC/MA). The management of monochorionic twin pregnancy involves several additional interventions beyond the routine management ...
