Repeat fetoscopic laser surgery for postlaser twin anemia polycythemia sequence and recurrent twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome: matched outcomes in a single-center cohort‡
We suggest a standardized approach to diagnosis of postlaser TAPS and recurrent TTTS and technical considerations for performing repeat laser. In patients eligible for repeat laser surgery, it is possible to achieve acceptable outcomes that are comparable to outcomes after single laser in patients matched for TTTS disease severity. These findings should be corroborated in a larger multicenter study, but may be useful to help patient counseling and management when repeat laser surgery is considered for recurrent disease.
