Management of Single Fetal Death

Isaac Blickstein, MD

(2)

Common knowledge:

Twin pregnancies >> twin deliveries

► more early (unknown) losses

► more early (embryonic) losses

► more late (fetal) losses

(3)

Common knowledge (II):

The vanishing twins syndrome

►Unknown incidence

Unknown etiology

Unknown consequence

Landy and Keith

(4)

Incidence of the VTS (Pinborg et al)

1/10 of all ART singletons

started as twins

(5)

If single fetal death is associated with CP

Is the Vanishing Twin Syndrome

also associated with CP in

the survivor ?

Outcome of single fetal death depends on:

Chorionicity

Gestational age at diagnosis

Interval since fetal death

(20)

Maternal effect:

(probably) None

(21)

Outcome depends on:

Chorionicity

Phase 1: TTPTS

(Twin To Placenta Transfusion)

Importance of the large vessels

(Veins)

(31)

Phase 2: TTPTTS

(Twin To Placenta To Twin Transfusion)

(32)
(33)

Severe

TTPTS/TTPTTS:

Acute hypotension

 Death of co-twin

Double death

(34)

Less severe TTPTS/TTPTTS:

Moderate hypotension

 ischemia

Fetal end-organ damage

(35)

Mild TTPTS/TTPTTS:

Mild hypotension

 adaptation

Intact survival

Timing of single fetal death (1)

Twin 2 Twin 1

Intact Early death

Vanishing twin syndrome + a normal singleton

(40)

Vanishing twin syndrome + a normal singleton

• In spontaneous pregnancies: 3-5.5% start as twins  1.2%

end-up as twins

• In ART: 10.5% of singletons had a twin from the beginning

(41)

Timing of single fetal death (2)

Twin 2 Twin 1

Damage Early death

Vanishing twin syndrome + damaged co-twin

Timing of single fetal death (4)

Twin 2 Twin 1

Damaged Late death

Single fetal death + damaged co-twin

(45)

Timing of damage

• Immediate to very acute

• Almost never observed in real-time

(46)

Timing of damage

At the time of diagnosis of

single fetal death in MC twins,

irreversible damage has most

likely already occurred

(47)

Damage 33%

Intact 67%

Did damage occur ?

• US

• MRI

Management option (1):

Vanishing twin syndrome in “normal” MC twins

— actual risk unknown

— TOP debatable

 Conservative management

(50)

Management option (1a):

Vanishing twin syndrome in “problematic”

MC twins

Indirect proof of functional anastomoses

— Discordant NTs

— Early signs of TTTS

 TOP

(51)

Management option (2):

Single demise remote from term, timing unknown

—risk of damage ~30%

—risk of prematurity ~100%

 conservative management

Damage 33%

Intact 67%

(52)

Management option (3):

Single demise remote from term, real-time diagnosis

—risk of death ~30%

—risk of damage ~20%

 conservative management

 intrauterine transfusion

 delivery (in viability)

Death 33%

Damage 22%

Intact 45%
