Outcome of monochorionic twin pregnancy complicated by Type‐III selective intrauterine growth restriction

Type‐III selective intrauterine growth restriction (sIUGR) is associated with a high and unpredictable risk of fetal death and fetal brain injury. The objective of this study was to describe the prospective risk of fetal death and the risk of adverse neonatal outcome in a cohort of twin pregnancies complicated by Type‐III sIUGR and treated according to up‐to‐date guidelines.
