disappearing twinFrom: DuBose, Terry (DuboseTerryJ@exchange.uams.edu)Tue May 18 13:47:28 1999
Dr. Worrall, et al. Interesting image. http://www.obgyn.net/us/present/9905/worrall.htm <http://www.obgyn.net/us/present/9905/worrall.htm> I agree the left horn may be a case of disappearing twin. However, for the sake of discussion and academic interest, could you tell if these two sacs (Rt. & Lt.) communicated? I am wondering if it is possible for the magma reticular in the chorionic space to fill both horns of a bicornate uterus? The magma reticular has a slightly echogenic texture compared to the amniotic fluid which is perfectly clear of echoes. Since this is early enough that the amnion has not yet fused this seems possible; though I have not seen anything about it in the literature. Also, I suppose it could be blood, but not likely since she has had no spotting. Good, image, interesting. Let us know if you find out more. Thanks. Peace, Terry J.

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.
