Emergency Cesarean Section in a Dichorionic Diamniotic Twin Pregnancy With Hydrops Fetalis : A Report of a Critical Case
Copyright © 2024, Ahmad et al..
This case report describes the emergent scenario of a 41-year-old primipara at 31.2 weeks of gestation, presenting with abdominal and back pain in the context of a dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy complicated by hydrops fetalis. The patient, with a history of hypertension, hyperthyroidism, and a cervical stitch in place, underwent an emergency lower segment cesarean section. The ultrasound revealed an intrauterine left footling in one twin, contributing to the suspected hydrops fetalis. Neonatal complications arose, particularly with Baby B, necessitating immediate resuscitation and intensive care. Successful outcomes were achieved through a well-coordinated multidisciplinary approach involving obstetricians, neonatologists, and anesthesiologists. This case underscores the importance of prompt recognition, timely interventions, and collaborative care in managing complex pregnancies, shedding light on the challenges associated with dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies and emphasizing the need for ongoing research to refine perinatal strategies.
