Fetal therapy.
Twin to twin transfusion syndrome and twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence affect up to 15% of monozygotic twin pregnancies. They can lead to miscarriage or very premature delivery, and fetal death. Intrauterine treatment is leading to an increased rate of survival of at least one twin in affected pregnancies.
