Observational Study[Fetoscopic laser coagulation in 200 consecutive monochorionic pregnancies with twin-twin transfusion syndrome].
To report preoperative data, surgical characteristics, complications and perinatal outcome of twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) managed with laser ablation surgery, to analyze predictors of neonatal survival and to compare the 100 most recent cases with the older 100. ⋯ The neonatal survival of TTTS is improved by fetoscopic laser coagulation, preferely by using Solomon tecnhique. The use of active management of stage I is currently on research.
