Discordant intrauterine transfusion in dichorionic twin pregnancy with Rh isoimmunization

Discordant intrauterine transfusion (IUT) in twin pregnancy with Rh isoimmunization is uncommon and complicated. We report a gravida 3, para 2 woman with a dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancy and two fetuses received discordant transfusions. Middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) was used to evaluate the anemic degree in each foetus. IUT was performed 3 times in twin A and 4 times in twin B to reverse foetal anaemia. Transfusions were distinct due to the different tolerance to IUT, and the procedure could be continued in one foetus even if the other one underwent complications. Two male babies were born at 36 weeks of gestation and were given different treatments after birth. Twins were subsequently healthy after 2 years of follow up.The discordant IUT was due to the different tolerance to transfusion in the DCDA twins. Zygosity is important for the management and treatment of haemolytic anaemia in twin pregnancies.
