Selective Fetal Growth Restriction Leading to Cerebral Injury in Monochorionic Twins: A Case Report.

Cureus

December 2024

Neonatology Department, Daniel de Matos Maternity, Coimbra Local Health Unit, Coimbra, PRT.

Monochorionic twin pregnancies carry a risk of perinatal complications due to shared placental anastomoses, which can cause uneven blood distribution and lead to conditions like selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR). This case describes a monochorionic pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia and late-onset sFGR of twin B. Labor was prematurely induced and a 45% weight discordance between the twins was confirmed.
