Article Synopsis
  • Twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) affects 10%-15% of monochorionic twin pregnancies and this review analyzes the placental characteristics of these twins after laser treatment, focusing on their impact on fetal outcomes.
  • A systematic review of 26 studies involving 4013 twins found that 24% of placentas had residual connections (anastomoses) after laser treatment, which were linked to higher risks of fetal and neonatal death, recurrent TTTS, and twin anemia polycythemia sequence.
  • The study emphasizes the significance of analyzing placental features post-laser as they can influence the health outcomes of TTTS twins, with detailed methodologies employed to assess study bias and analyze data effectively.
