- Abstract
To evaluate prevalence, types and postnatal follow-up of congenital heart disease (CHD) in a cohort of monochorionic-diamniotic (MC/DA) twin pregnancies complicated by selective fetal growth restriction (sFRG) without Twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). Conclusions In MC/DA twin pregnancies without TTTS, sFGR increases 3 times the risk of CHD. The higher risk of CHD in MC/DA pregnancies appears not to be due to MC itself but to the typical complications of MC pregnancies as sFGR and TTTS.
