Intrapair birthweight discordance in twins.
BACKGROUND Birthweight differences in twin pairs influence their perinatal outcome as well as growth and development. Growth-discordant twins have not been well characterized in our local environment. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of birthweight discordance in live-born twin pairs and document some factors that may influence it. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 104 live-born tw...
متن کاملBlood flow changes in dichorionic twins with growth discordance.
AIM The study evaluated the applicability of Doppler ultrasonography in predicting the course of pregnancy and neonatal outcome in dichorionic pregnancy complicated by growth discordance. METHODS Doppler examination of the umbilical artery (UA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) was performed in 106 twins. Abnormal values of the UA pulsatility index (PI) were considered to be above the 95th per...
متن کاملDegree and Rate of Growth Discordance in Dichorionic Twins Conceived by In Vitro Fertilization
Objective. Our objective was to estimate degree and rate of discordant growth and its impact on perinatal outcome in dichorionic twin pregnancies conceived by in vitro fertilization (IVF) compared to those conceived spontaneously. Study Design. Growth discordance was defined as 90th percentiles for the study population. Adverse perinatal outcome was defined as 5-minute Apgar score <7 and/or adm...
متن کاملFirst-trimester growth discordance and adverse pregnancy outcome in dichorionic twins.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between first-trimester growth discordance and adverse pregnancy outcome in dichorionic twin pregnancies. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of consecutive women with dichorionic twin pregnancies undergoing an ultrasound scan at our institution between 7 and 14 weeks' gestation. Study groups were defined by the presence or absence of ≥ 11% crow...
متن کاملDichorionic twins discordant for intrauterine growth retardation.
A policy of expectant management until 32 weeks of gestation in 29 dichorionic pregnancies discordant for growth retardation resulted in an overall mortality of 24% (95% CI 13.9-37.2%) and a handicap of 2.2% (95% CI 0-12.0%). None of the normally grown co-twins died or was handicapped as a result of iatrogenic prematurity.
