One of the less common complications of multiple gestation is intrauterine demise of one or more fetuses. Despite the many case reports in the literature, there are no firm guidelines regarding the management of this problem. We herein report the favorable outcome of the conservative approach we chose for managing four patients; two with twins, one with triplets and one with quadruplets (first report in the literature). Strict follow-up based on frequent physical examinations, ultrasonographic assessment of fetal growth and well being, and coagulation profiles is mandatory. Individualization of delivery dates and mode is recommended.

Background: Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a form of pancreatitis that affects the pancreaticoduodenal groove area, which lies between the head of the pancreas, the second part of the duodenum and the distal bile duct, presenting as abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. In this study, we present the clinical and radiological characteristics of individuals diagnosed with groove pancreatitis at our center and discuss the use of a conservative treatment approach in managing GP.
Methods: The data of patients with groove pancreatitis treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2021 was analyzed.
