Reversal of twin-twin transfusion syndrome: Frequency, vascular anatomy, associated anomalies and outcome
Objective To determine the frequency of reversal of transfusional gradient and phenotype in a large cohort of prospectively studied cases of twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) and seek evidence of clinical or placental anastomotic associations
Twin-twin transfusion syndrome: the influence of intrauterine laser photocoagulation on arterial distensibility in childhood
Background-In twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), the donor and recipient fetus are exposed to differing volume loads and show discordant intertwin vascular compliance in childhood despite identical genotype. We hypothesized that discordance is prevented by intrauterine endoscopic laser ablation of placental anastomoses, which abolishes intertwin transfusion. We tested this by examining pulse wave velocity (PWV) in brachial arteries of twin survivors of TTTS treated with and without laser therapy
