Abstract
Objective
:- The aim of this study was to evaluate chorionicity
in twin pregancies and its impact on perinatal outcomes
Design
:- This is a prospective observational study
Setting:- This study
was conducted in Department of Neonatology in
Government Medical College Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar, a tertiary care public
hospital for a period of 18 months, between January2024 to July 2025
Participants
:- 251 mothers with DCDA and 114 mothers with
uncomplicated MCDA twins were enrolled and followed till discharge including
those admitted in NICU.Chorionicity was confirmed at delivery by examination of
placenta and membranes
Main
Outcome Measures :- Monochorionic
twins have higher perinatal morbidity and mortality than dichorionic twins
Results:- In our hospital, 365 patients presented with
multiple pregnancy. The incidence of twin pregnancy in our study was 1.42%. Mean maternal age of
patients in our study was 25.3 years.
With respect to chorionicity, 68.77% of women were dichorionic, 30.09% were
monochorionic diamniotic and 0.54% patients were monochorionic monoamniotic.
There was no maternal mortality in our study. In our study 10.68% of patients
conceived following ovulation induction, IUI or IVF. In our cohort, significant
association between low birth weight and chorionicity was established. The most
common cause for neonatal intensive care admission was prematurity in both
dichorionic 303/410 (73.90%) and monochorionic twins, 189/208 (90.86%) babies.
Respiratory distress syndrome was more common among monochorionic babies (41.82%
vs 26.83%). Neonatal deaths occurred in 50/502 (9.96%) babies of dichorionic
babies, while in 29/228 (13.94%) monochorionic babies died. Perinatal mortality
rate is 17.10% in monochorionic twins and 11.55% in dichorionic twins.
Conclusions:- MC twins are at more risk to develop various
complications. Chorionicity should be determined on ultrasound in all twins
preferably in first trimester.
Early diagnosis of twin pregnancy and proper
follow up throughout pregnancy improves perinatal outcome. |
