title: [Improvement in feto-neonatal prognosis in twin pregnancies. Comparison of 2 series of 158 pregnancies before and after establishing a therapeutic protocol].
abstract: We undertook certain measures in twin pregnancies: early screening during the second month of gestation with routine ultrasonography, cerclage of the cervix, cessation of work, with rest, hospitalization at 7 3/4 month's gestation for daily cardiotocographic monitoring, identical indications for cesarean section as for a single fetus. The outcome was clearly improved in 158 pregnancies when compared to an equal number of twin pregnancies from an earlier period.
