Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The incidence of twin pregnancy is rising, both due to advanced maternal age and to increased use of medically assisted reproduction. Multiple pregnancy is at a high risk for many different complications, both maternal and fetal-neonatal. Ultrasound certainly represents an extremely valuable tool in the diagnosis and management of this kind of pregnancy; also, important advances both in technology and in techniques are constantly made in this field.
In this Special Issue, we encourage authors to contribute with manuscripts which describe the state of the art regarding the diagnosis and management of twin pregnancies and their complications, starting from conception to delivery and neonatal care. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: diagnosis and management of intrauterine growth restriction, monochorionic-related complications, placentation abnormalities, fetal malformations, and preventive methods and clinical management of maternal complications such as preterm birth, gestational hypertensive disorders, gestational diabetes mellitus, and so on.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Silvana Arduino
Guest Editor
