Type Of Study: Case report.
Setting: GEST IVF, Centre of Reproductive Medicine, Prague.
Methods: The case report describes pregnancy after IVF + ET. The first trimester ultrasound scan showed monochorionic biamniotic twins with one common yolk sac (YS) only, which is possible in biamniotic twins, but very rare. Identical congenital defects such as anal, coccygeal atresia, and others, were diagnosed prenatally and postnatally in both twins.
Conclusion: Yolk sac number in monochorionic twins can play an important role in embryogenesi. Any possible relation with certain congenital defects has not yet been described. It is necessary to describe more cases.

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a complication of ovulation induction. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can occur as a consequence of this syndrome, but it is an infrequent event. The authors describe the case of a woman who became pregnant after ovulation induction and developed severe OHSS and, subsequently, DVT of the right brachiocephalic trunk, internal and external jugular veins, and right subclavian vein.

We present the case of a 36-year-old female who was diagnosed at birth with CHI that caused severe hypoglycaemia unresponsive to Diazoxide. Subtotal pancreatectomy was performed at the age of three weeks. Later, histological analysis of her pancreas in a research setting revealed a focal form of CHI.

We describe the case of the lethal full trisomy (T) 14 in a fetus from bichorionic biamniotic (BCBA) twin pregnancy. This is a case of a 28-year-old primigravida, with an unremarkable personal and family history, who just like her 30-year-old husband, was without consanguinity between spouses. She conceived spontaneously, without a burdened gynecological-obstetric history.

Objective: Complicated monochorionic biamniotic (MCBA) twin pregnancies may require treatment with fetoscopic laser photocoagulation, in case of Twin Oligo-Polyhydramnios Sequence or need of a selective termination of pregnancy. Patients requiring these treatments would need medical transfer to Metropolitan France because these are unavailable in Réunion Island. We evaluated the outcomes of MCBA pregnancies in Reunion Island with indications for fetoscopy, with a view to discussing the interest of training doctors on the Reunion Island, to practice fetoscopy on site.
