  • Multiple Gestation DEFINITION
    Multiple Gestation DEFINITION Any pregnancy which two or more embryos or fetuses present in the uterus at same time. It is consider as a complication of pregnancy due to : ∗ The mean gestational age of delivery of twins is approximately 36w. ∗ The perinatal mortality &morbidity increase. TERMINOLOGY ∗ Singletons - one fetus ∗ Twins - tow fetuses. ∗ Triplets - three fetuses. ∗ Quadruplets - four fetuses. ∗ Quintuplets - five fetuses. ∗ Sextuplets - six fetuses. ∗ Septuplets - seven fetuses. INCIDIENCE AND EPIDEMIOLOGY ∗ The incidence of multiple pregnancy is approximately 3% (increase annually due to ART ). ∗ Monozygotic twins ( approx. 4 in 1000 births ). ∗ Triplet pregnancies ( approx. 1 in 8000 births ). ∗ Conjoined twins ( approx. 1 in 60,000 births ). ∗ Multiple gestation increase morbidity & mortality for both the mother & the fetuses. ∗ The perinatal mortality in the developed countries Twins = 5 – 10 % births. Triplets = 10 – 20 % births ∗ Hellin’s Law Twin = 1:80 Triplets = 1:80² Quadruplets = 1:80³ RISK FACTORS (only for dizygotic pregnancy) ∗ Ethnicity (afroamerican race > caucasian race > asian race) ∗ Maternal age > 35 years (due to increase gonadotrophins production) ∗ Increases with parity ∗ Heredity usually on maternal side ∗ Induction of ovulation, 10% with clomide and 30% with gonadotrophins IMPORTANT NOTES ! ∗ Monozygotic twins having same sex & blood group ∗ Process of formation of chorion is earlier than formation of amnion ∗ Dizygotic twins must be dichorionic/diamniotic. ∗ There is no dichorionic/ monoamniotic. DIZYGOTIC PREGNANCY Dizygotic twins (fraternal) : ∗ Most common represents 2/3 of cases. ∗ Fertilization of more than one egg by more than one sperm. ∗ Non identical ,may be of different sex. ∗ Two chorion and two amnion. ∗ Placenta may be separate or fused. ∗ “each fetus is contained within a complete amniotic- chorionic membrane “ DIZYGOTIC PREGNANCY MONOZYGOTIC PREGNANCY ∗ Constitutes 1/3 of twins ∗ These twins are multiple gestations resulting from cleavage of a single, fertilized ovum.

Umoiyoho Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, University Uyo Teaching Hospital, Uyo, Nigeria Abstract Fetal interlocking is a potentially catastrophic intrapartum situation and an extremely rare complication of multiple pregnancy. This is the case report of a 27 year old primigravida who presented at the University of Uyo teaching hospital after a traditional birth attendant had failed to deliver the after coming head of her baby. Clinical examination revealed locked twins, with demise of the first twin. The patient was successfully managed with decapitation of the first twin while the second twin was delivered by vacuum extraction with good Apgar scores.

Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2009 to December 2010 at the Obstetrics and Gynaecolgy Unit I, Civil Hospital, Karachi. Patients with twin pregnancy giving birth beyond 24 weeks, were selected by non-probability purposive sampling. Data on patient characteristics, gestation, antepartum and peripartum complications, chorionicity, mode of delivery and perinatal outcome was recorded and analysed through SPSS 16. Results: Out of 6077 deliveries during the study period, 119 twin births gave a frequency of 19.58/1000 births. Patients' mean age was 27.51±4.2 years, mean parity 2.4±2.2 and mean gestational age was 34.76±3.4 weeks. Unbooked and referred patients were 96 (80.67%). Final paired outcome was alive twin pairs in 74 (62.18%) cases, stillbirth in 7 (5.88%), neonatal deaths in 10 (8.40%). Perinatal mortality rate was 277/1000 twin births. Most frequent foetal complications were low birth weight (n=84; 70.58%), pre-term births (n=70; 58.82%) and intrauterine growth restriction (n=59; 49.57%). The second twin was at significantly higher risk (p< 0.05). Monochorionic twins had significantly high rates of stillbirths than dichorionic (p = 0.023). Most frequent maternal complications comprised pre-term labour (n=56; 47.05%), severe anaemia (n=22; 18.48%), hypertensive disorders (n=19; 15.96%) and postpartum haemorrhage (n=10; 8.40%).
