Although smaller brain biometry was found, normal diffusivity in surviving twins suggests normal parenchymal microstructure. The rate of cerebral structural injury was relatively low in our cohort, arguing against the routine use of fetal brain MR imaging in twin pregnancies complicated with single intrauterine fetal death. Larger prospective studies are necessary to guide appropriate surveillance protocol and parental counseling in twin pregnancies complicated by single intrauterine fetal death.
