Abstract

Twin transfusion syndrome (TTS) is a rare, yet frequently fatal, complication of twin gestations. Recently published data demonstrate a reduction in the perinatal mortality rate associated with TTS from nearly 100% to 20‐40%. This article explains the pathophysiology of TTS, newly described treatments, complications, and specific aspects of nursing care for patients with this complication of multiple gestation.
