Stillbirth in twin pregnancies in Stockholm County 2000–2021—A descriptive study

The risk of stillbirth in twin pregnancies was more than twice as high as in singleton pregnancies, although both incidences decreased over time. Stillbirth among monochorionic twins was especially associated with the unique risk factor TTTS. Causes of stillbirth among dichorionic twin pregnancies were similar with those of preterm singleton stillbirth.

Abstract

The risk of stillbirth in twin pregnancies was more than twice as high as in singleton pregnancies, although both incidences decreased over time. Stillbirth among monochorionic twins was especially associated with the unique risk factor TTTS. Causes of stillbirth among dichorionic twin pregnancies were similar with those of preterm singleton stillbirth.
