Remember to scan for other anomalies at 20 wks and also obtain fetal echo as well. Formal genetic counseling by someone familiar with the import of increased nuchals is highly recommended. also - if these are monochorionic twins, the possibility of a twin - twin transfusion syndrome should be kept in mind here. good luck. art At Fri, 9 May 2003, Patricia Sabb wrote: > >35 yo physician patient with two previous uncomplicated pregnancies now >pregnat with twins, Nuchal ultrasound at 11 wk 5 days showed Nuchal >translucency 4.5 in Twin A and 1.8 in Twin B.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
