Outcome of twin pregnancy with two live fetuses at 11-13 weeks' gestation.

The rates of fetal loss at < 24 weeks' gestation, perinatal death at ≥ 24 weeks and preterm birth are higher in MCDA and more so in MCMA twins than in DC twins. In MCDA twins, the rate of fetal loss may have been reduced by endoscopic laser surgery in those that developed early TTTS and/or sFGR. These data would be useful in counseling parents as to the likely outcome of their pregnancy and in defining strategies for surveillance and interventions in the management of the different types of twin pregnancy.
