The twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a specific complication of monochorionic twin pregnancies. The diagnosis is often established in the second trimester of pregnancy and is based on a set of ultrasound arguments. The management of this complication is conditioned by the gestational age of onset and by the hemodynamic tolerance of the two fetuses. Severe and early forms (<26 weeks of amenorrhea) are treated by laser coagulation of placental vascular anastomoses.

Abstract
The twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a specific complication of monochorionic twin pregnancies. The diagnosis is often established in the second trimester of pregnancy and is based on a set of ultrasound arguments. The management of this complication is conditioned by the gestational age of onset and by the hemodynamic tolerance of the two fetuses. Severe and early forms (<26 weeks of amenorrhea) are treated by laser coagulation of placental vascular anastomoses.

Abstract: (french)
Le syndrome transfuseur-transfusé (STT) est une complication spécifique des grossesses multiples monochoriales. Le diagnostic de STT est souvent établi au deuxième trimestre de grossesse et repose sur un faisceau d’arguments échographiques. La prise en charge de cette complication est conditionnée par l’âge gestationnel de survenue et par la tolérance hémodynamique des deux foetus. Les formes sévères et précoces (< 26 semaines d’aménorrhée) sont traitées au mieux par la coagulation laser des anastomoses vasculaires placentaires.
Author Keywords: Syndrome transfuseur-transfusé, Grossesse gémellaire monochoriale, Anastomoses vasculaires placentaires, Coagulation laser.
