Iatrogenic monoamniotic twin gestation with progressive twin-twin transfusion syndrome.

OBJECTIVE: Intentional puncture of the membrane has been reported to be a promising new method for the management of twin-twin transfusion syndrome. CASE REPORT: Treatment of twin-twin transfusion syndrome with serial amniocenteses resulted in unintentional puncture of the dividing membrane at 24 weeks of gestation. Fetal growth discordance increased, and twin-twin transfusion did not improve following the puncture. Intrauterine death of both fetuses at 27 weeks of gestation occurred. CONCLUSION: Amniotic septostomy for the treatment of twin-twin transfusion syndrome should be performed with serious consideration.
