Follow-up study after laser treatment for twin transfusion syndrome

Twin Diseases

Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.

This study looks at the pregnancy outcomes (prognosis) after fetoscopic laser surgery to treat twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). If you’ve already had this procedure, the study may follow what happens next to help understand recovery and results.

Study of growth-restricted twin babies in shared placenta

This study looks at babies in monochorionic (shared-placenta) twin pregnancies where one or both babies are growing too slowly. It aims to better understand this condition and follow families over time to improve care, with check-ins through age 2 after birth.

Uterine entry technique in laser surgery for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome

This study looks at how doctors enter the uterus during laser surgery to treat twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), a condition where blood flow between twins is unequal. The goal is to see if a certain entry method leads to better outcomes for the babies.

Laser treatment for twin-to-twin transfusion using one shared placenta

This study tests a laser procedure that seals abnormal blood vessel connections in identical twins sharing one placenta (twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome). The goal is to improve outcomes by stopping unbalanced blood flow between the twins.

Comparing two fetoscopes for twin-to-twin transfusion laser surgery

This trial tests two types of fetoscopes (curved and straight) during laser surgery to treat twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. It looks at which tool works best when the placenta is on the front wall of the uterus.

A study of a new surgical approach for TTTS and TAPS

This trial tests a new surgical technique for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) or twin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS). It places a stitch through the amniotic sac during surgery to see if it helps. The study is for pregnant people between 18 and 23 weeks with healthy cervical length and a safe access point for surgery.
