pubmed:abstractText |
Severe, progressive twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is associated with near-100% mortality if left untreated. Endoscopic laser ablation of placental vessels (ELA) is associated with 75% to 80% survival of at least one twin. The actuarial risk of fetal demise after ELA has not yet been described.
