PREVALENCE OF SPONTANEOUS TWINNING  1 in 80 live births (1 in 40 babies)  10-20/1000 live births in US, Europe  40/1000 in Africa  6/1000 in Asia

ETIOLOGY OF MULTIFETAL GESTATION  Dizygotic – fertilization of 2 ova

ETIOLOGY OF MULTIFETAL GESTATION  Monozygotic – division of single fertilized ovum

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE TWINNING  Race  6/1000 livebirths in Asia  E.g. 4.3/1000 in Japan, 11.3/1000 in India, 12.3/1000 in England, Wales  Heredity  Maternal history more important  Mother’s who themselves are twins gave birth to twins at a 1/58 live births  Maternal Age and Parity  Taller, heavier more nutritionally provided women, 25-30% inc in twinning rate  Pituitary Gonadotropin  Inc dizygotic twinning rate w/in 1 mo. of stopping oral contraceptives, associated with sudden surge in gonadotropin  Assisted Reproductive Technology  Responsible for 17% of multiple births in the US

MATERNAL PHYSIOLOGY  Cardiovascular  More hyperdynamic circulation than singleton pregnancy  Cardiac output increases by 20% more in twin gestation than in singleton  15% from stroke volume: due to increase in preload  3.5% from heart rate  GI and Hepatic Changes  Pregnancy nausea and vomiting 50%  Twice the risk for obstetric cholestasis  Twin pregnancy independent risk factor for acute fatty liver, 9-25% of all cases seen in twin pregnancies  Renal  No significant difference from singleton  Increased GFR, leads to decreased BUN, Crea and increased urine protein

MATERNAL PHYSIOLOGY  Respiratory  No significant difference  Increase use of accessory muscles  Exaggerated abdominal distention  Loss of abdominal tone  Hematologic  RBC mass increases by 25% in both single and multifetal gestations  Inc. in plasma volume is 10-20% greater in twin pregnancy vs singleton  Other changes associated with singleton pregnancy occur in the same way  Fall in Hct 1 st -2 nd trimester  Granulocytosis with increase in immature WBCs  Hypercoagulability due to changes in coagulation and fibrinolytic cascades

COMPLICATIONS  Antepartum complications  preterm labor  gestational diabetes  Preeclampsia  preterm premature rupture of the membranes  intrauterine growth restriction  intrauterine fetal demise  TTTS  80% in multiple gestations vs 25% in singleton pregnancies

MATERNAL COMPLICATIONS  Preterm Delivery  57% of twin gestations are preterm  Not all spontaneous  Higher risk for male-male twins  Ave. length of pregnancy 35 wks for twins vs 39 wks for singletons  Gestational DM  May be increased in multifetal gestation though not universally confirmed  Treated the same way in twin pregnancies

MATERNAL COMPLICATIONS  Pregnancy HPN  Gestational HPN - RR 2.04 (95% CI )  Pre-eclampsia – RR 2.62 (95% CI ), w/ earlier onset, greater severity  Gestational HPN and preeclampsia also associated with higher preterm delivery rates  Gestational HPN, <37 wks 51.1% vs 5.9% singleton  Preeclampsia, <37 wks 66.7% vs 19.6% singleton  pPROM  Occurs in 7-10% of twin pregnancies  Typically occurs in the presenting sac  Management same as in singleton pregnancies

FETAL COMPLICATIONS  Fetal Growth Restriction  10 times more likely in multiple gestations compared to singletons  Growth Discordance  >=20% difference in EFW  5-15% of twins  Usu. birth weight difference of 15% for twins  34% chance of growth restriction in at least one twin for monochorionic twins, 23% for dichorionic twins  Associated with 6 fold increase in risk for perinatal morbidity and mortality  Congenital anomalies  Studies suggest 2-3x increased risk in twins, with probably 10% of twins born w/ congenital anomalies

FETAL COMPLICATIONS  Spontaneous Pregnancy Loss  Around 14% of twin gestations spontaneously convert to singleton pregnancies before the 1 st trimester – “Vanishing twin”  Remaining fetus a 3x inc risk for abortion  Est. that only 1/8 individuals conceived as a twin is born a twin  Intrauterine Fetal Demise  Overall survival rate of both twins is 93.7%  Death of one or both fetus at wks 5% vs 2% in singletons  Subsequent risk of miscarriage of surviving fetus 24%  Chorionicity important  Monochorionic twin – death of one fetus inc risk of death of the other of 25%  Dichorionic twin – 5-10% risk

FETAL COMPLICATIONS  Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS)  Almost exclusively confined to monochorionic twins, with 10-15% of these having a severe form  Around ¼ of all monochorionic twins have some features of the syndrome  Due to the presence of intertwin anastomosis: A-A, V-V, A-V  A-V and A-A occur in 70% of monochorionic twins  Classically due to A-V anastomoses carrying unidirectional blood flow from donor to recipient twin

FETAL COMPLICATIONS  TTTS  Donor twin may become anemic and growth restricted  Recipient twin may become polycythemic, w/ circulatory overload and heart failure  Diagnosed by UTZ at wks.  Diagnosed by presence of monochorionic twins with one oligohydramnios twin, other polyhydramnios twin  Most commonly treated with aggressive amniodrainage and laser photocoagulation of anastomoses  Survival rate of at least one twin with laser therapy higher (66%) vs amniodrainage (57%)  Acute twin-to-twin transfusion  Antepartum complication in the interval of cord clamping of 1 st twin and delivery of the 2 nd twin  2 nd twin left alone with 2 placentas, where its blood may be pumped into - death

DIAGNOSIS  Suggested by  Accelerated fundal growth  Multiple fetal parts  Auscultation of 2 FHTs  Sonography – the “sine qua non” of diagnosis  Chorionicity  Fetal viability/diagnosis of intrauterine death  Nuchal translucency thickness  Chromosomal abnormalities  Early TTTS diagnosis  Fetal structural abnormalities  IUGR, discordant growth  Fetal circulation  Placental localization, fetal position

DIAGNOSIS  Chorionicity  Important – highest rate of death in twins occurs before 24 wks, most often due to TTTS  Chorionicity easier to determine at early gestation  What to look for  Separate placentas – diagnostic but usu. difficult  Intertwin membrane – from 2 amnions, 2 chorions, >2mm in dichorionic twins  Extraembryonic coelimic space – 2 in dichorionic  Yolk sacs – 2 in dichorionic  Fetal sexes  Lambda/twin peak sign – diagnostic of dichorionic twins; triangular chorionic tissue from fused dichorionic placenta extending into the intertwin membrane

LABOR MANAGEMENT & DELIVERY  The cornerstone of antepartum care is prevention of preterm labor and delivery  Main cause of high perinatal mortality and complications in twins  Labor and Delivery Problems  Hypotonic uterine inertia  Due to overdistended uterus  Oxytocin just as effective as in single births, dosage, time to delivery, complications same  Intrapartum bleeding  More common in twins due to abruptio or vasa previa

LABOR MANAGEMENT & DELIVERY  Route of Delivery  Vaginal delivery for mature vertex-vertex twins and <1500g vertex-vertex twins – same outcome as CS  CS indications for singleton pregnancy still apply  If the 1 st twin is transverse or breech, CS in favored  Avoid “locked-twins” complication  CS for non-vertex second twin  No improvement in fetal outcome  Inc. maternal febrile morbidity  Best delivered by assisted breech delivery or breech extraction

LABOR AND DELIVERY  Presentation and Position  Most common combination is cephalic-cephalic, cephalic-breech, and cephalic- transverse  Presentations other than cephalic-cephalic are unstable

VAGINAL DELIVERY  Cephalic-cephalic: spontaneous or forceps assisted  Cephalic-noncephalic: vaginal delivery of the noncephalic twin can be done if the weight > 1500g  VBAC: same risk of uterine rupture as in singleton pregnancy

CESAREAN SECTION  Breech: CS if  Large fetus, and the aftercoming head is larger than the birth canal  Small fetus the extremities and trunk may deliver through an inadequately effaced and dilated cervix, but the head may become trapped above the cervix  The umbilical cord prolapses.

 In this study there was no significant differencein perinatal mortality and neontala mortality in both the CS group and planned vaginal group.
