Trichorionic Quadruplet Delivered Beyond 36 Weeks of Gestation : A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract EN

Following one year of secondary fertility, a couple conceived with a quadruplet after transfer of three embryos through IVF-ICSI.

At 36 weeks and 2 days of gestation, the mother developed gestational induced hypertension and delivered the next day by caesarean section.

Pathology confirmed the zygosity to be trichorionic quadramniotic and all four babies were discharged home with their mother on postoperative day 3.

Herein, we describe a successfully managed high-risk pregnancy case.

A review of the literature was conducted and to our knowledge no other cases with similar criteria ever reached such advanced gestational age.
