Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome
Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 2013We sought to review the natural history, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment options for twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS).A systematic review was performed using MEDLINE database, PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library. The search was restricted to English-language articles published from 1966 through July 2012.

Twin‐to‐twin transfusion syndrome
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2007Eighty one percent of case group reported a gross change in quality or quantity of vaginal discharge in the last week of pregnancy, in comparison to 14% with full term pregnant women who reported altered status of vaginal discharge in the time interval of week 28 to week 37 0f their pregnancies (Pb0.000) (Table 2).

Twin-twin transfusion syndrome
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1990Twin-twin transfusion syndrome associated with acute polyhydramnios in one sac and severe oligohydramnios in the other, which characteristically is diagnosed between 18 and 28 weeks, is associated with a high mortality rate for the involved twins. Patients who are managed without intervention have essentially 100% perinatal mortality. Nineteen patients

Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome
Postgraduate Medicine, 1970Plethora in one of a pair of monozygotic twins and pallor in the other are now understood as evidence of intrauterine transfer of blood by way of vascular anastomoses in the placenta. The artery-to-vein type of communication acts as an arteriovenous shunt. The syndrome is an important cause of fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1963The twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome is an easily identified circulatory disease of twins which imposes immediate, serious, and critically different handicaps on each of identical twin newborns. The syndrome is characterized by severe anemia in one twin and intense plethora in the other; and it is due to unbalanced vascular mixing due to anastomotic ...

Twins and twinning, dentists and dentistry
Australian Dental Journal, 1990AbstractComparisons of physical features within identical (monozygous) and non‐identical (dizygous) twin pairs have provided valuable insights into the relative contributions of genetic and environmental influences to observed variability. The special nature of the twinning process itself also provides an opportunity to learn more about early human ...

The Lancet, 2003
Twinning has fascinated human beings over the centuries. New technologies and large study groups have led to improved documentation of frequency and complications in twin pregnancies and long-term outcomes. Artificial reproductive technologies have led to a pronounced rise in numbers of dizygotic and monozygotic twins.

The Monozygotic Twinning Process, the Twin-twin Transfusion Syndrome and Acardiac Twins
Placenta, 2009This paper suggests that during the time of the "splitting process" that produces monozygotic twins the number of cells may not be evenly distributed to the future twins. The outcome of this 'irregular division' may be the twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome and acardiac twins.

`Twin' Psoriasis in Monozygotic Twins
Archives of Dermatology, 1984To the Editor.— Psoriasis in concordant, monozygotic twin pairs tends to be similar, with respect to age of onset, distribution pattern, severity, and course. 1,2 The similarity in the behavior of the disease has been ascribed to the fact that both patients have two basic factors in common, ie, identical genetic endowment and nearly identical ...
