Abstract
Reported are sonographic criteria for distinguishing the chorionic type of twin pregnancies prenatally. Thirty-four twin pregnancies were prospectively evaluated with correct assignment of chorionic type in 33 cases. The ability to determine the chorionic type of twin gestation facilitated the prenatal diagnosis and management in eight of the studied cases. Knowledge of the type of twinning antenatally is important in the management of twin pregnancies.
