Transfusion syndrome in a triplet pregnancy.
A case is reported of a transfusion syndrome in a triplet pregnancy with intrauterine death of two of the fetuses. This is an exceptional occurrence in a triplet pregnancy and raises the problem of the management of multiple pregnancies associated with the death of one or more of the fetuses. The problem of the method of delivery and the complications arising in triplet dizygotic pregnancies is discussed.
