Testing monochorionic twins for twin-to-twin transmission syndrome (TTTS) in utero starting at 16 weeks can increase the chances of survival for both twins in the womb. This is the focus of a special Born Ready presentation by Dr. Clifton Brock, maternal fetal medicine specialist at the Midwest Fetal Care Center.

Objectives:

• Explain the embryology and related pathology unique to monochorionic placentation.
• Describe the rationale for surveillance and strengths and weaknesses of current clinical guidelines dealing with surveillance.
• Share how data supports (or not!) current screening guidelines.
• Identify concerning ultrasound surveillance findings that warrant escalation and intervention.
