Abstract

Background Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is a condition that can occur as a complication of a monochorionic twin pregnancy that may develop at any stage of pregnancy and most cases are diagnosed in the second trimester of pregnancy. The syndrome is a placental vascular anomaly that can affect the two fetoplacental circulations which can result in hypotony, hypovolemia, anemia, and oliguria being developed in the donor, whereas the recipient fetus is at risk of hypertrophy, hypertension, hypervolemia, polycythemia, and polyhydramnios. Case presentation A 32-year-old multigravida woman (Gravida 5 Para 4 Abortion 0) with a gestational age of 26 weeks came to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic of Unggul Karsa Medika Hospital with the results of the first ultrasound at 24 weeks of gestation which revealed monochorionic diamniotic intrauterine twins and anterior placenta with grade I maturity. Twin A Maturity of 23 weeks 2 days with a fetal weight of 578 grams, oligohydramnios, fetal kidney, and bladder are not visible, whereas Twin B Maturity of 26 weeks 6 days with a fetal weight of 1205 grams, polyhydramnios with a single 12 cm deepest pocket and normal fetal kidney with bladder distention. The diagnosis of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome was made with twin A as donor twins and twin B as recipient twins. Conclusion TTTS can be diagnosed with routine prenatal ultrasound and can be deferred into 4 stages based on ultrasound and doppler results. There are multiple options for management including expectant management, amnioreduction, intentional septostomy, fetoscopic laser photocoagulation, selective reduction, and voluntary pregnancy termination.

Abstract

Hyaline membrane disease (HMD) is commonly found in preterm infants. This disease occurs as the result of surfactant deficiency due to prematurity. Surfactant deficiency results in increased alveolar surface tension, with resistance to inflation and alveolar collapse at the end of expiration. As a result, the alveoli are injured due to shear stresses on the alveolar walls. The injury could be seen in chest x-ray, as the most common radiological modality to help differentiate diagnosis. Plain chest x-ray findings of HMD are low lung volumes, diffuse, bilateral and symmetrical granular opacities, bell-shaped thorax, and air bronchograms. This case study showed chest x-ray finding of preterm newborn that diagnosed with respiratory distress syndrome clinically.
