Abstract
Intermittent diastolic flow should be considered a characteristic sign of monochorionic pregnancy. This sign seems to result from the presence of large arterio-arterial anastomoses. The incidence of intermittent diastolic flow is significantly increased in the context of selective intrauterine growth retardation, indicating a poor perinatal outcome in these cases.
