Fetofetal transfusion syndrome in triplet pregnancies: Outcome after endoscopic laser surgery

Endoscopic laser ablation is feasible in triplet pregnancies that are complicated by severe fetofetal transfusion syndrome. The treatment appears to be associated with improved perinatal outcome in dichorionic, but not in monochorionic, triplets, probably because of the technical inability in achieving ablation of all the communicating vessels in monochorionic triplets.
