Popis: | A case of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome with intrauterine death of one twin and meconium peritonitis and intravascular disseminated coagulation in the other twin is reported. Meconium peritonitis follows to bowel perforation, caused by segmental severe hypoplasia of muscular layer. The Authors suggest that this structural alteration of bowel wall could be an expression of inequal distribution of some cells between the two twins, during embrional development. |
