Abstract

|
|
Recently, the incidence of multifetal pregnancy rate is increased due to the use of the assisted reproductive technology and ovulation induction drug. Single fetal death in a twin pregnancy in the late second and third trimesters is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the surviving co-twin, especially in a pregnancy involving monochorionic twins. Management should be indivisualized, conservative management is preferred by most obstetricians. Recently, we experienced a case of twin pregnancy complicated by the death of one fetus. We present this case with review of related literatures.
