Monochorionic twins discordant for congenital heart disease: a referral center's experience and possible pathophysiologic mechanisms.
OBJECTIVE To describe the spectrum of cardiac defects in monochorionic (MC) twins discordant for congenital heart disease (CHD) in a referral center population. METHOD Retrospective study of all twin gestations undergoing echocardiography between 2000 and 2009 at our institution. RESULTS A total of 356 twin pairs were evaluated during the study period, 202 for suspected twin-twin transfusio...
متن کاملCongenital malformations in twins: epidemiologic survey.
Among 1195 twins born in the Collaborative Perinatal Project, for whom information was available, 219 (18.33%) were found to have malformations, 179 (14.98%) single and 40 (3.35%) multiple. The frequency of malformations and malformed individuals was significantly higher in twins than in singletons from the same population but the difference was entirely contributed by MZ twins. This held true ...
متن کاملCongenital malformations in one of monozygotic twins.
The purpose of this communication is to describe two cases of gross foetal abnormaity and to discuss the influence of intra-uterine environment on the development of congenital abnormalities when the contribution of inherited or genetic factors is made known by the co-existence of a genetically similar but normal twin. The anomalies will not be discussed in detail, but some explanation of the m...
متن کاملPerinatal outcome of monochorionic twins with selective IUGR compared with uncomplicated monochorionic twins.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the perinatal outcome of MC twins with selective IUGR (sIUGR). STUDY DESIGN A prospective study, which included three groups of MC twins: Group A, uncomplicated MC twin pregnancies (n = 91); group B, sIUGR with normal umbilical artery Doppler (n = 19); and group C, sIUGR with abnormal (absence or reversed EDV) umbilical artery Doppler (n = 18). The latter were routinely ...
متن کاملTrisomy 13 in monozygotic twins discordant for major congenital anomalies.
The occurrence of trisomy 13 in twins is very rare. We report a pair of genotypically identical twins with trisomy 13 discordant for major anomalies. This case contributes to the already published data on the contribution of non-genetic factors to the aetiology of congenital malformations in monozygotic twins.
